Clavi-organum, builder unknownA curious instrument born from the unnatural coupling of a bourdon and a lute on the second keyboard of a small organ whose first keyboard also sounded the bourdon alone. This instrument then combines a harpsichord by the presence of a lute (stringed) playable on the second keyboard and a positive organ by the presence of an 8' Bourdon common to the two manual keyboards. Pédalier en tirasses.
E6The choir organ of St Gervais was built by Daublaine Callinet in 1845. It consisted of 13 stops.
