CHOICE OF TWO MODELS
The emphasis is entirely on the quality of tone with all stops independently generated including individual mixture ranks. In addition to the British specification it also contains three other alternative specifications: French; German and Dutch.
CRAFTSMANSHIP
The organ has a high quality, robust oak console built in the “Shaker” style. It looks impressive with and abundance of solid oak, oak slat roll-top, integral music desk and pedalboard lighting, but it is what lies beneath the surface that really sets this organ apart: an extensive generator system for optimal quality of individual voices and six high powered channels of external audio providing a flexible separation between organ ranks and departments.
“We are delighted at St Thomas with the Wyvern Cantata 226 organ installed by Wyvern Church Organs. The positioning of the new speakers in the rafters at the back if the church has given a balanced, rounded and clear sound. From the original planning; enhancing of the spec to include a 32 note pedalboard; installation and voicing, every aspect went very smoothly, and Wyvern Church Organs have been excellent throughout.”
Angela Frith St Thomas a Becket, Widcombe, Bath
