Title: St German's Cathedral, Peel needs a new pipe organ
Post by: Wadsworth on March 02, 2013, 10:05:15 PM
A challenge for one and all:

1. To accompany and enhance the Cathedral's services and growing Choral programme
2. To lead and accompany large diocesan services and civic occasions
3. To act as a premier teaching instrument to inspire future generations of island organists
4. An interesting recital instrument that is different from everything else on the island (mainly English Victorian)
5. Not cost us millions of £!  :)

This is a very worthwhile project.  I hope that  Peter will find something which suits his purpose.  It is wonderful to see a church prmoting its music so actively, especially in such a beautiful part of the world.

I don't think that has any more resources than the present instrument, although it has three manuals.
