Continuo
Organs by Henk Klop, Netherlands AUDIO
Designed by Gerrit & Henk Klop of the Netherlands, this continuo organ has found
its place among many early music groups, choirs and touring ensembles in the
US and throughout the world. To achieve the mild yet carrying tone so searched
for in continuo organs, the pipework is made entirely of wood, following historical
examples like the Compenius organ of 1610 in Copenhagen. This has as extra advantages
extremely light weight and ruggedness of construction; it can be easily transported
in any position without fear of damage. The case in which the organ arrives
also serves as its transport case. Placed on its back, the organ fits into almost
any station wagon. All registers are split bass/treble, with both stop knobs
operated by one (left) hand. Casework is in cherry with ornamental grill panels.

Continuo
Organs by Bennett & Giuttari
A continuo organ of two or three ranks made its debut at the Boston Early Music
Festival 1995. The instrument is the collaboration of John Bennett and Glenn
Giuttari and was based on the kisten organs of the 17th century (Manderscheit,
Nuremberg), with all pipework in wood. Panels on the side (fretwork) and top
of the instrument control the egress of sound. The sticker action/ palletbox
lies directly beneath the keydesk, giving very precise control of pipe speech.
A single-fold wedge reservoir gives gently flexible wind. The instrument's mild
voicing is ideal for continuo and chamber ensemble settings.
