Hello, wouldn't it be great to save all these pics ,with their exact locations, and put them together somewhere(maybe the archives) for future use , so anyone interested fir research, can find them? Maybe this way we can help to write the history about these instruments....

Uli, Those are great pictures. I wonder when they date from? I looked up the cathedral online to see when it was built, but as was typical, it is the work of many centuries, starting in 1220 (or earlier for some remnants of a Romanesque church incorporated in the building) and ending about 1520. I don't know enough about styles to know when these were done. Interestingly, one of them looks more modern than the solo organistrum, which might dictate a later date in that period. Does anyone on the list know anything about ho to date these images? -Arle On Jan 4, 7:15 am, "Ulrich Joosten" <[email protected]> wrote: > Yep!
