For sale in 1998. Portative (Truhenorgel, chest organ). $15,000. It has a single manual, clavichord-scale ebony keyboard, with a 3-octave compass. No pedal, and no expression. It sits on its own wind chest, which is electrically driven (and is included within the 3x3x2 size stated above). It is tracker action, with an unusually light touch. It is tuned high -- to A444 -- but it could be tuned to other pitches. It has six stops: Copula 8; Gedackt 4'; Flote 2'; Cymbel 1-2'; Quinte 1 1/3'; Carillon 3'. Carillon is a reedy solo stop.
