Tom Lewtak was educated as an organist and organbuilder, having two master’s degrees in Organ Performance. His organbuilding life-long inspiration and experience began at age of 16 when he viewed building of the great organ at St. Mary’s Cathedral in Gdansk (Danzig), Poland, by the German firm of Hillebrand. Later, he took organ building and design as his minor during five years at the Academy of Music in Katowice, Poland. The following years took him to Denmark and Norway, where he apprenticed with Carsten Lund Organ Builders of Copenhagen. He acquired his voicing skills by working with Mogens Pedersen, a man who for over twenty years was the chief voicer of legendary Frobenius Organ Builders. Tom’s organbuilding knowledge is not just theoretical, but came from first-hand experience with the best organ builders in Europe. He is responsible for tonal design, pipe scaling, voicing, windchest and action design. One can say that Tom Lewtak is a mastermind of what’s inside our organs.

 

Paul Lewtak has a master’s degree in architecture and interior design. His rich designing background embraces many significant projects in his native Poland. Paul took an active part in restoration of historical buildings in Gdansk (Danzig), Poland, after the destruction of WW II. He created several original designs for monuments and statues, which were later cast to his specifications. A gifted sculptor and talented painter, Paul is responsible for facade and organ case design, structural engineering, wood working and many other technical details that must be considered during the construction process. Paul is the author of the outside appearance of our instruments.
