Description nr.: 2002467.
Built by: Charles Boisselin (1712)
The organ contains older material: Pipes from 1673 by Père Pozalgues
In 1673 Pozalgues built a small organ for the parish church of Malaucène. It was completely renovated in 1712 by Charles Boisselin, who supplied, among other things, a new wind chest, new bellows, new mechanisms and a new Cromorne, but also replaced a lot of pipework. Joseph Isnard replaced the Cromorne by a Trumpette during a renovation in 1783. Payan restored the organ in 1841, extending the manual size from 48 to 54 notes. The pedal got its own windchest with a Flûte 8', and the old Tierce was replaced by a Flûte Cheminée 4'. Another restoration followed in 1943, by Chénet, but it was not until 1965 that the organ was largely restored to the condition of 1712 during a restoration by Alain Sals.
