Testimonial
This instrument was designed to be used in two venues on the University campus - the Graduation Courtyard and Macquarie Theatre. Each hall has its own permanently installed loudspeaker systems, and the console is on a moveable plinth. With the dual voicing facility, it was possible to voice the organ to suit the differing acoustics in each venue.

"Since its inception, Macquarie University had hoped to have a fine organ. Copeman Hart made it possible. We're proud and delighted . . . and very impressed with the way in which Copeman Hart installed and voiced this superb instrument. It will make a tremendous difference to the musical and ceremonial life of the campus, and will give a lot of joy to Sydney music lovers."

Professor Di Yerbury, Vice-Chancellor


"We had been unimpressed by our experience of electronic organs until we decided on a Copeman Hart. From its first audition, the organ showed promise of a colourful and commanding musical presence in the austere and soaring Graduation Courtyard, scene of the University's great ceremonial occasions."

Brian J Spencer, Registrar and Vice-Principal
