Altenbach, Johanneskirche
Neubau einer Kompaktorgel | II/9 | 2015 | Opus 1004
The church dates from 1898, with tower and porch from 1963. The former interior has been re-ordered. The whole of the rear of the church, including the tower, was demolished and replaced by a new building. The new portion is conceived as a completion of the church in its existing outline, a simple edifice in dialogue with the church hall to form a clearly defined church square. The interior is divided by a tall stone slab incorporating stairs, gallery, sacristy, storerooms and organ. Above this a bell tower rises through the roof, incorporating the three existing bells.
The new organ is sited in a niche, 1.70m wide by 1.80 deep, by 3.70m in the middle of the balcony. It is mounted on a frame with steel rollers, so that it may be pulled out of the niche like a drawer for maintenance purposes. Only the bench and the pedalboard project forward from the niche.
The design foresees a very compact and well thought out organ with just 768 pipes. Maximum use of the pipes is made through various technical features (shared ranks, superoctave couplers etc). The result is a many-sided instrument, ideally suited to the accompaniment of worship.
