VOICING
UNDER WAY
Fernand
Letourneau (pictured above standing next to the
choir box), who founded Orgues Létourneau in
1979, has arrived in Australia to begin work on
"voicing" the organ. The
"voicing" of the pipes is a vital
element as it is what determines how the organ
will sound. Letourneau is widely known for the
meticulous and intricate detail he goes to in the
voicing procedure. And with thousands of pipes in
the new organ, the voicing will take up a
considerable part of the "construction"
time. More information on the voicing process and
work will be published as it quickly gets under
way.
