Organ Tour on the 300th anniversary of organ builder Karl Joseph Riepp

 

 

 Karl Joseph Riepp (1710 - 1775) was organ-builder and wine-dealer. Born in Ottobeuren, he moved to  France as a young man. After his years as apprentice and journeyman, he settled in 1741 in Burgundy (Dole and Dijon) in 1741 and through his wine-dealer business achieved considerable wealth. In Salem he built 1766-1774 the biggest organ installation in the world at the time, with 120 stops distributed among 4 organs.

 

 Organ Tour „In the footsteps of Karl Joseph Riepp“ from Salem via Konstanz, Winterthur and Besancon to Burgundy. Here we meet up with our French Organ friends „Amis de l´Orgue de la cathédrale de Dijon“ und „Amis de l ´orgue de Dole“.
