Dresden, Deutschland (Sachsen) - Frauenkirche
Municipal: Dresden
Address: Neumarkt, 01067, Dresden
Website: http://www.frauenkirche.de/
Description nr.: 2011020.
Built by: Alfred Kern & fils (2005)
The company Alfred Kern & fils from Strasbourg was commissioned to build a new main organ for the rebuilt Frauenkirche in Dresden. The organ was taken into use at the same time as the church building on October 30, 2005. The instrument was built behind a reconstruction of the Silbermann facade of 1736, which was lost in 1945. However, the interior of the organ is modern in design, and has no relation whatsoever to the old Silbermann organ. The organ is tuned to a' = 442 Hz. The Brustwerk can also be transposed to a' = 415 Hz.
