The Létourneau pipe organ at St. Mark’s School of Texas was significantly damaged last October when a tornado ripped through the neighbourhood of North Dallas. The tornado tore parts of the school chapel’s roof off and much of the 61-rank instrument was soaked, including its three-manual console. We are pleased to announce an agreement was recently signed for the instrument’s complete restoration, with the organ to be removed this summer and transported back to our workshops in St-Hyacinthe, Québec. We are grateful to St. Mark’s School for entrusting us with this project and like them, we look forward to Opus 127’s return to Dallas in the summer of 2021!

Some good news for a Friday afternoon: The Létourneau team will be returning to work on Monday, May 11th! Naturally, every precaution will be taken to ensure everyone stays healthy and safe in the weeks ahead as we get back to building pipe organs. This will include regular handwashing, proper respiratory etiquette, frequent cleaning of all surfaces and tools, and a strict observance of social distancing. Much of the past week has been spent preparing our workshop for this new reality and we thought we’d share some photos. In the meantime, we trust you and your families are in good health and are staying safe. We’ll have more news next week about some future projects.

Yesterday, the Government of Québec directed all non-essential workplaces in the province to close as a measure to fight the coronavirus outbreak. The Létourneau workshops will accordingly be closed until April 13th at the earliest. The company’s leadership team will continue to work from our homes during this time and, naturally, we would be pleased to hear from you. In the meantime, we encourage everyone to follow the advice of your local health authorities and stay safe! https://cdn-contenu.quebec.ca//19-210-30A_Guide-auto-soins
