Restoration

|
Laliberté-Payment recommends that the restoration
of an organ conform to its original construction,
although, subject to thorough evaluation, it still
remains open to the legitimate improvements of
modern organ building. Our guiding principle is
authenticity.
Stages in the restoration process:
|
Releathering of all components (reservoirs,
etc.) |
|
Replacement of pouches, primary valves, and
of all pneumatic and mechanical organ
systems |
| Full
revoicing and restoration of organ pipes
according to the building principles of the
instrument's construction |
|
Revarnishing of the case |
|
Restoration of the front pipes (painting,
motifs, etc.) |
|
Electrification and addition of MIDI and
computerized systems |
| Solid
state conversion |
|
