Organ returns to Battersea Arts Centre 28.08.19

The historically-significant Battersea Arts Centre organ has been returned to the Grand Hall after being restored by FH Browne and Sons. Whereas the organ case, bellows and console were destroyed in the 2015 fire, many of the original components were off-site at the time of the fire and have been reinstated in a new expressive arrangement on the balcony to showcase the pioneering inner mechanism as originally designed by Robert Hope-Jones in 1901. The new organ console is a replica of the original and sits on a mobile platform allowing the organ to be played from anywhere within the Grand Hall via standard power and data networks.
