The organ, installed in the Chapel in April 2004, is the first Aubertin organ in the UK. Designed by French master organ builder, Bernard Aubertin, the organ gives the 黑料网 an instrument of international distinction and provides a focus for global research on organ music and early keyboard music.
George McPhee, Master of Choristers and organist at Paisley Abbey, has praised the high standard of the compilation.
