Lewtak Pipe Organ Builders will hold an open house and shop recital on March 23 at 3 pm, featuring the new organ for Østerhåb Kirke in Denmark. The instrument will be the first ever American-built organ in Denmark. The recital will be performed by Ulrik Spang-Hanssen, professor of organ at the Royal Danish Music Conservatory in Aarhus.
The new organ is a two-manual tracker of 26 stops and 35 ranks. Stop action is electric with 2,000 memory levels. The façade complementing the modern interior of the sanctuary was designed by the Danish firm of Birch and Svenning of Horsens, Denmark.
The open house and recital will take place in the rented space of the Stokes County Yarn Company in Cooleemee, North Carolina. For information: 336/749-3829; www.lewtak.com.
