Organ to be scrapped - last concert - Bach: In Dulci Jubilo

Can you find this redundant organ a home? This is the last concert on this instrument by Mark Cyphus before possible organicide on account of closure of the church in central London.

This Choral Prelude by Bach on the tune In Dulci Jubilo demonstrates this wonderful 4 manual organ. Links to further details about this organ otherwise to be scrapped are on the "more info" of the "Plea for Organs" video http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=MW1oOTiFoOk


Wouldn't it be wonderful if the dance school could incorporate organ music into dance? But modern people don't appreciate the organ. That's why the Hammerwood Park concerts focus on organ music http://www.hammerwood.mistral.co.uk/concerts.htm but we don't have the space for an instrument like this so have to make do with an alternative, although an exceptional one. Why can't new users of buildings like this just incorporate an instrument like this into their plans and cherish it?

Perhaps there may be a university or concert hall that would like to have this organ. It would be worth asking around.

The future of this organ, in Wales, is described on the website of St Michael's Church, Abertillery.

This organ by Walker should be saved. How much Rob Charles?
