organ listing by location
Parroquia de la Inmaculada Concepcion de Vicuña
Mechanical traction instrument for notes and registers.
Doctor Luis González tells us
We visited this instrument with the French organ builder Yves Koenig
in December 2004, who deduced that the instrument was
built around 1850, probably in
France.
We deduced the composition of the registers from
than what appears on the chest base.
A notable element of this instrument is that the
keyboard and pedal board start on the note B (see
photo),
more...
which could be an indication of "ravalement",
that is, the organ has a lower note than
the first Do.
The organ is in the most absolute state of
abandonment since the high choir of the Church was
is very deteriorated.
It is highly recommended,
and so we made it known on that occasion, to remove the
instrument from that place.
