The
organ front is an integral part of the sanctuary architecture.
Its design is an important element of sensitive craftsmanship,
to which Hey dedicates itself with the utmost care.
The organ must match its
surroundings not only with regard to size, volume and character
of tone, but also optically. The old masters, in particular,
designed rich organ fronts to match the character of the space.
In Baroque surroundings,
the organ, too, will take on a softer, more curved form. An
organ front based on vertical and horizontal lines goes well
with the austere surroundings found in many Protestant churches.
Getting the design right is simply part of building a good organ.
The
cases of Hey organs are held together by good old-fashioned wood
joints. Only highest quality materials, sophisticated designs,
and processing methods are used. This guarantees a long useful
life and an organ of lasting value. When maintained properly,
high-quality instruments can last one hundred years or more
without requiring major repairs.
Environmental protection
is an important part of production. Harmful substances that pose
a threat to human beings and the environment are eliminated
entirely.
