EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we witness a moment frozen in time - the dismantling of the magnificent church organ at St Bartholomews Church in Lostwithiel, Cornwall. It is December 1991, and David Gridley from Lance Foy Organ Builders stands amidst a sea of pipes and intricate machinery. His skilled hands delicately disassemble the organ piece by piece, ensuring its safety during much-needed roof repairs to the historic church. The significance of this task cannot be overstated; for within these very walls resides one of Cornwall's finest organs. Crafted by Brewer and Co in Truro, it has long been revered as a masterpiece of musical engineering. Its rich tones have filled countless services with ethereal melodies that uplift souls and inspire worship. Photographer Jonathan Barker captures this pivotal moment with great artistry, showcasing both the grandeur and fragility inherent in such an undertaking. The composition reveals rows upon rows of meticulously crafted organ pipes reaching towards the heavens from their lofty perch. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder that even our most cherished treasures require care and preservation. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded not only of the beauty contained within those hallowed walls but also of our responsibility to safeguard them for future generations to enjoy.
