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.
