This organ was known, in part, to the Project prior to the publication of Keys to the Kingdom. But nothing appeared on the builder’s website before the deadline for editorial changes. It had been reported in March 2016, on the Slipped Disc website (https://slippedisc.com/) that the organ cost 1.3 million Euros, or about 1 million GBP at the time. The Project does not know how accurate this figure may be.
