Organ n. 33 | Buchmann-Mehta School of Music practice organ This practicing instrument, which was originally a small accompaniment organ constructed by the German organ-builder Paul Ott, underwent extensive reworking under Gideon Shamir. The original layout of the instrument was as the following: (Unit system organ) Gideon Shamir was asked by the Buchmann-Mehta School of Music to build a new 2 manual/pedal organ, and he decided to incorporate the Ott organ into the new project. A new soundboard was added for the second manual, another one for the pedal, and a new, larger case was constructed. This project made possible for Mr. Alexander Gorin, an organist who immigrated to Israel in 1991 to start teaching the organ. |
