Sabathil Harpsichord, Opus 2203
Sabathil & Son of Vancouver produced Opus 2203 in 1977, for Cathy Plaggemars, the organist at Second Church for many years in the late 20th century. The harpsichord came to Second Church from Cathy’s estate upon her death.
The harpsichord comprises two manuals, having fairly robust 8′ and 4′ stops on the lower manual, and a more delicate 8′ stop on the upper manual. The manuals couple. It has a simple case, but an elegantly painted soundboard.
