Joaquín Lois, organbuilder, specializes in the restoration and construction of Spanish Baroque organs. The workshop, located since 1985 in the town of Tordesillas, Valladolid (Spain), has built and restored pipe organs since 1972. Numerous projects have been completed throughout Europe, with additional commissions in countries such as Panama, Mexico, and Cuba. The firm’s philosophy includes the mastery of traditional techniques, knowledge of different organbuilding schools, and the conception of each instrument as a research document. Both restorations and the construction of new organs demonstrate special interest in the Iberian organ.
The firm has developed the Clarin project, providing suitable tools for the study and interpretation of Iberian organ music in those regions where there are examples of this style of organbuilding. The firm offers its services in the construction of organs in the style of Iberian instruments from the 17th and 18th centuries, building copies of historical Iberian organs, as well as newly designed models.
