Complete description of the selected organ
Wellington (New Zealand), New-Zealand (Wellington) - Cathedral of Saint Paul
Municipal: Wellington (New Zealand)
Region:North Island
Address: 2 Hill Street, 6011, Wellington (Thorndon)
Website: https://www.wellingtoncathedral.org.nz/
Description nr.: 2078753.
Built by: Viscount Classical Organs (2018)
After the earthquake of November 2016, the large Lewis organ in Wellington Cathedral was no longer playable. A restoration would be expensive, and another earthquake would cause major damage again. That is why they decided to have a digital organ installed. It is a four-manual organ of the Regent Classic Organ type, supplied by Viscount Classical Organs. The organ was put into use in October 2018. Joseph Nolan played the opening concert.
