About the Organ:
The organ at Brookshire Farm is a custom built Noack Organ. Mr. Blanchet worked extensively with Fritz Noack on the design of the organ, beginning in mid-2009. Fritz presented his fifth proposal for the organ design on January 12, 2010, which was accepted by the Blanchets. The organ was finished in December of 2011 and installed in their house in February of 2012. Peter Sykes gave the inaugural recital on September 28, 2012.
