Three manual drawstop residence organ, Bristol
The hand-built light oak console contains the pedal organ speakers. A separate enclosure designed to sit on top of the console contains the speakers for the manuals. The organ was voiced at the request of the customer in the style of the Hill chorus at Dursley Parish Church, with the alternative voicing as French.
Our customer wrote to us shortly after the installation, and said "....Having kept pace with the advances made in digital sound production I have test driven a variety of manufacturers organs.......before trying an Eminent.............the Cantata III seemed to be the right choice on paper and after playing in a home environment I was convinced, and so placed my order.............The installation was remarkably quick and straight-forward, and I was soon playing the instrument, designed to my very own specification.......after a while I found just a few voices which needed balancing and tonally altering. This was simple and easily achieved and I now own an instrument which is first-class for all my requirements.....Various sceptical organist friends have visited the instrument and have been extremely impressed, commenting particularly on the wealth of tone colour available, the finely constructed wooden console, the comfortable pedalboard and the concealed gadgets readily accessed by just a few pistons.....I can thoroughly recommend the Eminent organ, and the back-up service which you provide, and would be pleased to show it to any prospective customer considering such an instrument."
