The Organ Project : St Mary's, Portsea
"...Tonally, I regard this organ as the final achievement of 19th century British organ building.. this organ at Portsea is without question exciting."
Fundraising for the restoration of the J.W Walker organ in St Marys, Portsea is taking a decisive step forward. Please sign up to our newsletter on www.theorganproject.org.
Our website will be developed over the next few weeks with pictures, audio and the history of our famous organ. We aim to highlight the significance of this 1889 instrument and ultimately raise enough funds to save and restore the organ to its former glory.
Help is always greatly appreciated.
