We are proud to be entrusted with the care of the fine four-manual organ in Beverley Minster. The first instrument there was built by Snetzler in 1767 and many of the original pipes still exist.
One of our tasks was to add five new ranks of pipes: A Bombarde 16' and a four-rank Furniture on the Great; a Double Trumpet 16' on the Swell; a Cremona 8' on the Choir; and a Mixture of four ranks on the Pedal.
All of the new pipes were made by Shires Organ Pipes of Leeds. The specification of the organ, with further details about its history, may be found on the Beverley Minster website.
