Custom built pipe organs from the Leek Pipe Organ Company

"The Organ is in truth the grandest, the most daring, and the most magnificent of all instruments invented by human genius. It is a whole orchestra in itself. It can express anything in response to a skilled touch. Surely it is in some sort a pedestal on which the soul poises for a flight forth into space..."
— Honore De Balzac (French writer and Journalist. 1799-1850)

Why build a pipe organ?

A traditional pipe organ is desirable for its versatility, magnificent architectural features, pure and vast array of sounds in contrast to the digital sounds of other modern instruments. A custom built organ makes the best use of the unique acoustics in your church buildings and architecture.

Some churches may choose to purchase an existing organ from a different church and modify it to suit the new buildings acoustics. This can be effective in certain cases where the instrument itself is of great historic and musical value. Otherwise the church may find out possibly a little too late that the recycled pipe organ does not complement the new building's space fully.

A well built custom organ has the potential to inspire a congregation and elevate the quality of the music enabling members to make a deeper connection with the divine in daily or weekly services.

Why hire The Leek Pipe Organ Company to build your pipe organ? Our approach!

Our organs incorporate traditional old world European craftsmanship with modern designs and cutting edge technology at an affordable price.

We are small enough to care and large enough to serve! Larger firms that have to pay high overhead costs frequently put churches in precarious financial positions with cost overruns despite initial promises they make to the contrary.

Our firm however has a record of being a 100% on budget and on schedule in all of our major restoration projects.

Our company's decades of experience in servicing organs has given our staff the intimate knowledge of design/technical flaws of a variety of contemporary and historic organ builders. Our staff have honed their ability to solve problems created by such flaws. This accumulated knowledge enables us to build organs that require minimal service and when in need of attention will be easily serviceable.

While for the past decade we have been primarily focused on mostly organ restoration projects, we are confident and poised to take this next step of building full custom organs! We welcome an opportunity to be of service in building your custom pipe organ.
