The Passionate

The industry has created its own culture and with it, a community of skilled people in a variety of trades and professions that are anxious to present their skills and passions to a wider audience. They include many artisans who design, build and care for the instruments. It is the very special ears of a voicer that can make the sound of one organ so distinctive. It is the careful blend of the old with the new and… the very new. The organ is 800 or more years in the making and as fresh today as it was when it was just a block of whistles. Yes, there is a commitment here. There is a respect for the beauty of ivory and wood under fingers, for the touch and the sound. There is an admiration for its metal and wooden pipes, its intricate casework and at times, its simplicity. Whether elaborate or simple, pipe, digital or combination of the two, the effect is genuine. It is a holy work of skill and inspiration with a result that will yield sweet sounds that accompany the ritual stages of human existence. In the final analysis, it is the craft and the music that makes us more aware of our humanity.
