Considering the mechanical complexity of the organ, it is all too easy to begin thinking of it as an industrial product rather than a musical instrument. For this reason, the company has always been under the leadership of men with musical as well as organ building credentials. Our tonal system is based on the fact that most organs, especially those in churches, must accompany and support singing, join with other instruments, and perform a broad spectrum of organ solo repertoire. The organ also must inspire and hold the interest of the same listeners and musicians year after year. This requires a wide variety of beautiful tones at all volume levels. We devote considerable effort toward this end, hence our motto . . . dedicated to expanding the tonal color and dynamic range of the pipe organ.
