I have cleaned and sorted upwards of 500 organ pipes this week
I got a job working w/ mechanical action organs this summer!
Sadly, it’s in the middle of nowhere.
Tuning Day 2:
First organ was an Estey unified to hell and back. It was in poor condition, 49 F/9 C in the chambers, and the organist left the console incredibly messy. Some of the stops were nice when played by themselves, though.
The second organ was the best: a II/28 Austin in a perfectly-sized room. While it’s trapped in a chamber, it has lots of open space to radiate out into the room, and the ~2.5s acoustic perfectly compliments the instrument. While it can get loud up in the gallery, the sound is never overwhelming and is perfectly clear on the floor. The whole thing is in one swell box which is eh, but apart from that it was a lovely instrument. It had an 8′ Solo Trumpet on the Great which was a bit loud, but besides that it was very well-balanced and remarkably in tune.
The third organ was a bit of an oddity. It was another Austin contemporary to the one above, but it was trapped in two chambers on either side of a rear gallery. While the church had a beautiful rose window, that also likely prevented them from installing an organ in an advantageous position. While the organ sounds fine down in the nave, it is quite forceful at the console. While the arrangement per se isn’t too different from many English organs, they tend to sit a fair distance above the organist’s head. This organ had almost all of its unenclosed pipework exposed and sat comparatively close to the floor of the gallery: since the gallery was deep, the sound had a chance to expand by the time it reached the console and thus was significantly louder than if the console was under the pipes. Additionally, there was a ~50 ft/ ~18 m high space behind the altar that would’ve been perfect for an organ especially with their Vatican II changes, but the current instrument works fine for their needs. The 20″ Tuba hooded into the nave should go, though.
Trying to get my sleep schedule back in order so I am able to wake up at 5:30 on Monday morning to meet at the shop and then do some Advent Tuning.

I love how some #pipeorgan relays are nicely identified with these old #dymolabels. Nice and clean to read. Ok it was me. I still have one. 😉 #organbuilder #falltuning #oldschool #dymo #labelmaker #brianebiepipeorganservice (at Suffield Township, Portage County, Ohio)
Spent the morning dismantling a windchest and getting it ready for removal from the balcony. #alotofscrews #organbuilder #pipeorgan #nowwhat #brianebiepipeorganservice (at Mogadore Christian Church)
