organ listing by builder

Monasterio del Carmen de San José

 

It has not been possible to establish the history of this unfortunate instrument. Of what remains of its structure and   more...



due to the fact that it has pneumatic transmissions despite having only 5 stops, It could be deduced that this organ dates from the first decades of the century, when that transmission system predominated.

In the opinion of Dr. Luis González, this could be an instrument of the Walcker House, from Germany.
