Østerhåb Kirke, Horsens, Denmark

Dedicatory recital by Prof. Ulrik Spang-Hanssen, June 9, 2013 

This was our first overseas project with which we broke a historic barrier – we became the first ever American firm to build an instrument in Denmark, a country famous for consistently great organs and meticulous builders. We were deeply honored to have been chosen, and were excited to deliver a one of a kind instrument. The specification called for 26 stops, including a 32’ Contra Bourdon in the pedal.  The church building offered excellent acoustics with approximately four seconds of reverberation in an intimate, not-too-large room of very modern design.  Key action is mechanical and stop action is electric with electronic memory.
