Redundant Organs – October 2025

The following organ has been added to the Redundant Organs list:

Urgent relocation of this small organ is needed before the end of November 2025, currently located in the crypt of St Mary’s Cathedral, Sydney.

In good condition; any minor issues would be easily rectified on relocation.

This organ has been used as a practice instrument since leaving its original home in 2004. With the promptness of its action and gentle voicing (stopped wooden and spotted metal pipework) it makes an ideal practice organ or would suit a small chapel, etc.

Owing to the relocation deadline, price is negotiable.
