Saint Antoine

des Quinze-vingts

66, avenue Ledru Rollin, 75012 Paris

Orgue d'accompagnement OdT>

C3 This organ was built by Gutschenritter in 1908/1909 in a neo-Gothic buffet. Placed on the tribune of the north transept, this organ has 2 keyboards, a pedal and 11 real stops. A pecularity is its pneumatic transmission composed of brass tubes that go up along the wall. This relatively complex system shows no failures since its installation in 1908! In 1967, an overhaul was done by Beuchet-Debierre. He replaced the Bourdon 8 of the GO by a new Plein Jeu III and did a partial reharmonaisation. In 1979, Jacques Barberis performed a new overhaul. In 1994, the organ was restored by Yves Fossaert.
