San Antonio de Padua

 

The organ of the San Antonio de Padua Parish in Viña del Mar was built by the Spanish organ builder Juan Dourte:

Built in 1934 by the Nuestra Señora de Begoña workshop, founded by Juan Dourte in Bilbao.

It is of the Romantic-symphonic style, typical of the first half of the 20th century.

The organ was severely damaged in the 2010 earthquake, when pieces of the ceiling fell on the pipes.

The cabinet, bellows, console, and mechanisms, were restored, as well as the pipes. Some pipes that had been missing since before the earthquake were also rebuilt.

The organ was reopened with a concert by Jaime Carter on April 5, 2024, performing works by Dubois, Franck, Bach, and Belier.
