ORGANS OF PARIS 2.0 © Vincent Hildebrandt ALL ORGANS
This organ is a ‘Polyphone’: a small (portable) organ
invented by Louis Debierre. It is a kind of miniature organ
with "polyphone" pipes, i.e. one pipe can produce several
tones: the tallest pipes are equipped with one, two or three
valves, resulting in two or three different tones produced by
only one pipe, while in a ‘normal’ organ, each pipe makes
one tone. This allowed to reduce the size of the instrument.
Despite its small number of stops, this small organ has a
great sound.
