Choir organ

GO>

C1 The choir organ was built by Cavaillé in 1858. The latter equipped the instrument with an amazing wind tunnel operated by a complex mechanism of vilebrequins, wheels and chains. Overhaul by Cavaillé-Coll in 1870. Subsequently, Mutin did some work at an indeterminate date. He increased the size of the pedal and installed an independent pneumatic pedal (Bourdon 16 borrowed from the GO). In 1937, the instrument received an additional stop by Gonzalez (the addition of an 8-foot Pedal by duplication of the Flûte 8 of the GO). The organ was overhauled in 1982 by Philippe Guilmard and restored in 1987 by Dargassies.
