Welcome to the website of the Rieger
pipeorgan home
in the Christchurch Town Hall,
New Zealand


A view from the walkway to the swell, looking at the tops of the pedal reed pipes

What looks like an angular box is actually the wind trunking leading upwards

Tracker rods seen from below the projecting bombardes

The bombardes with their tops mitred to fit in the space

T he pedal 16' posaune and 32' kontraposaune with wooden resonators

Fagott 16' pipes are protected from dust by caps of black gauze

Looking up to the posaune and kontraposaune pipes

From the swell walkway again looking down the throats of the pedal reeds
