Two-manual Skrabl organ installed in the chapel of Kimbolton School

It was a privilege to install a new two-manual Skrabl organ in the magnificent chapel of Kimbolton School in Cambridgeshire. It is a generous gift from members of the Old Kimboltonians' Lodge.

The model in question uses a small number of digital stops to enhance the sound by combining the quality of a traditional pipe organ with the versatility and cost-benefits of a digital instrument.

It is good to report that music occupies a central role in the life of all Kimboltonians. There are 26 dedicated musicians on the staff, coaching in almost every instrument, including the organ.

In addition, almost half of the students choose to learn an instrument or have singing lessons. We hope the organ will fulfil its role in the chapel and in the training of the young students at this fine independent school.
