Stages

Restoration has progressed in stages

Work has been done in stages, as funds have become available. Stages correspond to the Beckerath's keyboards/divisions: four keyboards for the hands and a pedalboard for the feet.

 

Costs for the final stage are unadjusted for inflation and are a best estimate.

Work Already Done   Work Yet to be Done

STAGE 1: Rückpositiv (R) 2006 = $42,952
In 2007 we restored the pipes in the Rückpositiv, one of the four manual keyboards, or divisions.

STAGE 2 and 3: Pedal (P) front half 2009 = $74,198
In 2009-2010 work was done in two stages so the Pedal division was played throughout: first the ranks in the front half of the Pedal Division, including the 16-foot Prinzipal pipes in the two tower façades, and next, the ranks in the rear half of the towers.

STAGE 4: Kronpositiv (K) + Hauptwerk (H) = $96,500
For efficiency and savings, these adjoining divisions were restored at the same time.

 

 

STAGE 5: Work on the console ($50,000, estimate) was completed in December 2011. In February 2012, the Schwellwerk (S) will be restored ($35,000, estimate), to be followed by final adjustments and tuning.
