About the organ

The Silbermanns are probably some of the most famous organ builders in France and in Europe in the 18th century. Originally built in 1745 by Johann Andreas Silbermann for Le couvent des Dominicains de Guebwiller, this organ arrived in Wasselonne during the French Revolution. To know more about the exciting history of this organ through the centuries, visit this website. The recording of this organ has been done in September 2008 in Wasselonne, and several years of work have been necessary to release this sample set.
