No warrants are required nowadays for the need to
preserve ancient organs. However, to have the preservating
operations carried out in a proper manner
it seems necessary that a number of quite specific
features be taken into account which are characteristic
for these objects. Considering the problem from
a general viewpoint it may be stated that organs
are built up of a housing, usually having form of
an artistically shaped and decorated prospect, which
the unit should be subjected to preservating operations
carried out on principles normally applied
in similar works covering other historical monuments
present in the church nave, of the instrument
itself composed of three mechanisms, namely wind-
-chest, sound-emitting unit together with its equipment,
and, finally the console.
As a rule the preservation of such an instrument
aimed at preserving both its purely artistical and
musical qualities, and original construction should
be carried out by an experienced and skilled organ-
-builder under a strict supervision by special staff
of experts.
To gather possibly full information with regard to
actual stock of monuments belonging to that category
and also to define the extent of preservation
requirements a detailed inventory should be prepared
using ad hoc prepared blanks the particular
columns of which are discussed in detail by the
author.
