Building an organ is an event in itself
On Sunday, 15 October 2023 at around 8pm a van and its trailer accompanied by a lorry arrived at the church square in Cambo-Les-Bains. They are arriving from Dresden in Germany. The company of organ builder Kristian Wegscheider is bringing the baroque organ in parts. A small committee from the association “Les Amis de l’Orgue Saint-Laurent de Cambo” was on hand to welcome them.
And so begins the 1st episode of the video series
“A baroque organ for Cambo”.
Today we have 11 episodes directed by Janie Cailliau. This soap opera gives you the chance to watch the evolution of organ building. We are talking about the assembly of the organ because all the elements of the organ were built in Dresden in the workshops of the organ builder Kristian Wegscheider.
