ITALIAN ORGAN BY NICOLA MANCINI, NEAPLES 1766

ITALIAN ORGAN BY NICOLA MANCINI, NEAPLES 1766
This restored central Italian organ has 9 stops. The sound of this colourful instrument is majestic and full of radiance. Two French doors painted with floral decoration and vines flank the sides of the instrument, which is still in its original colour scheme. The keyboard, whose lower keys are covered with boxwood and sharps with ebony, has a range of 4 octaves (including a short octave).
There are two inscriptions inside the instrument:
inside the windchest left-handed: (possibly) In Nomine[?] Christie Amen;
inside the instrument left-handed: Ernesto Nucci 1918.
A special feature of this instrument is the tromba stop, in the shape of a recumbent pipe on the note C. The action of the Organ is seduced with brass abstracts and metal shafts. An electric blower is present.
The organ is tuned and playable.
