English: Albi Cathedral - The grandstand organ, a masterpiece by Christophe Moucherel, completed in 1736, with a monumental buffet 16.40 m wide and 15.60 m high, one of the most beautiful in the south of the Loire. Christophe Moucherel being better known for the high quality of his buffets than for the reliability of his instruments, the organ was revised in 1747 by {François and Jean-François Lépine, then in 1779 by Joseph Isnard, nephew of Jean-Esprit, in 1825 by Antoine Peyroulous. Brought up to date during the romantic period by Jean-Baptiste Puget in 1904, in poor condition in the fifties, its restoration was decided upon and entrusted in 1977 to Bartoloméo Formentelli who is in charge of restoring the situation of 1825. The same will carry out a big lifting in 1996. It is from now on his son Michel who takes care of the instrument. 5 keyboards of 50 notes (C1 to D5 without 1st C #): dorsal positive, G.O., bombarde, narrative, echo, French pedal, 56 stops, 3578 pipes.

This object is classé Monument Historique in the base Palissy, database of the French furniture patrimony of the French ministry of culture, under the reference PM81000002.
