Can you help ensure this precious instrument’s future?
Sowne of Organe seeks a small church or other public building in Scotland. Enquiries are especially welcome from churches who might otherwise not have the financial means to house a pipe organ, but all enquiries are welcome, especially if the organ will be played and heard publicly—please get in touch here.
We propose to raise funds once again to help facilitate an organ builder-led, volunteer-assisted installation in its new home. The total cost of installation will depend on distance, number of volunteers, and whether the conditions exist for the pipework to be cleaned on site, but would likely not be more than £5,500.
