Any thoughts on what temperaments might have been most common on mid- 19th century Italian organs (eg Serassi)?

Thanks,
David

Robert Buhagiar in Malta might well have specific knowledge of this.

However a full Ripieno might indicate a temperament with a good number of perfect fifths and Young/Vallotti/Kellner/Kirnberger III would serve well but if the upperwork is lacking then perhaps the instrument might be moving towards equal temperament.

Best wishes
