TT1 - Schuke Orgelbau
Abstract:
The Berliner Orgelbauwerkstatt (Berlin organ manufacture), with its more than 500 organs and over 8,500 stops, has acquired over the last 50 years a name that has been as internationally recognized as in Germany. It is here that instruments of varying size and purpose have been designed and built; university organs for instructive purposes, resident organs, Positivs and chest instruments, concert hall organs with over 90 stops and up to 6 keyboards – always built with mechanical tone action – and more than 350 church organs. Each instrument, therefore, is developed with its own character and takes its own place in the history of the company.
Technical Tours are made available on a first come, first served basis to anyone with an All Access badge. Tickets can be purchased during normal registration hours at the convention center.
