Description
The Father Willis Organ, one of three in Salisbury cathedral.
Salisbury Cathedral has three organs: a house organ built by John Snetzler (1710-85), a chamber organ built by Peter Collins, and the Cathedral's principal instrument: the great Father Willis Organ of 1877, which is used almost every day of the year in our services.
The Father Willis Organ is central to worship at our Cathedral. From the quietest organ piece played at a weekday evensong, to the thrilling accompaniment of thousands of congregation members singing hymns over the Christmas period, our famous instrument has fulfilled this role for over 130 years. It is continually sought after by recitalists and recording companies, and is widely regarded as one of Willis's great cathedral organs.
