Pans Again Hears Organ
Silenced by German Shell
A despatch from Paris says;-
Ivlute since the fatal Good Friday in
1918 when scores of worshippers were
killed by a, shell from the Gorman
long_raege cannon which hurtled
through . the roof of Saint Gervais',
the 400 -year-old organ of that famous
old •church has refound its voice,
Although o gh it' was not directly struck
by the shell,; the instrument was seri
ously damaged by steel splinters
which pierced its pipes and shattered
the organ ease. The 'problem of re-
construction was serious, as the organ
is one of the most famous c in the
world and is classed as a national
monument of France.,
A11 of, the repairs were made in the
church. ".When the pipes were taken
down the skeletons of dozens of mar-
tens and swallows were . found in
them.
The, restorations were done so skill-
fully anti deliberately. ' that h t it . was
found necessary to replace only the
bellows, All the ether work was a
natter of laborious patching, not of
substitution.
The' exact date' at which the organ
wasmade is net known. However, the
style of decoration on ` some of the
pipes places it in the first half of the
sixteenth century. Various members
of the famous family organists, the
Couperins, played on it from 1656 to
1826.
Cardinal Dubois, Arabia's* of
Paris, presided, at the rededication
ceremonies, which ` Were carried out
with impressive ceremony.
