The Chancel (south side): the Organ.
The first organ was a harmonium but, in 1866, Foster & Andrews constructed the first pipe organ. It was shipped from Hull to Ventnor and unloaded near the gas works (at the top of the town). Ithad two manuals plus pedals,and remained unchanged until 1890 when a sum of £250 wasraised, mainly by the efforts of Mr Edwin Lemare senior who was organist at HolyTrinity for an incredible 61 years and who was the father of the famous orgainst and composer, Edwin H Lemare. The whole organ was taken down, cleaned and rebuilt with a third manual.

16th April 2013 at Queen Elizabeth Hall (Front Room), London SE1.
Part of Alchemy Festival (free event).
Country: India (British resident). Style: Qawwali.
Lineup: Abi Sampa (vocalist/harmonium/electronic veena), Madhu Aiyaa (flute), Jay Badiani (harmonium/v), Amrit Dhuffer (tabla), Puru Khaushik (guitar/bass guitar), Manan U (bass guitar/guitar).
A newly formed London based group performed Qawwali favourites. They came together on through musical perforances in India orgabnised by a medical charity. Their interpretations appeared add elements of other styles. My knowledge of Qawwali is very limited but compared to more traditional groups which I’ve seen they had more varied instrumention, lacked the chorus-cum-clappers, and the vocals were not quite as estatic.

The Harmonium was first developed in France in the middle of the 19th century. It has a set of free reads, a keyboard and bellows. The bellows can be operated in two ways, either by sunction from below the instrument using foot pedals or by pressure from the back using the left hand.
This instrument is of the hand bellows variety. Some of these were made as portable as possible, and could be packed away in a suitcase. These were often used by missionaries.
Portable harmoniums were brought to India in the middle of the 19th century, probably by missionaries. The instrument which was developed from them is today used a wide variety of different types of South Asian music. Harmoniums have hand-operated bellows which blow air through banks of brass reeds. The left hand pumps the bellows whilst the right plays a keyboard (or the reverse if the musician is left handed). There are two sets of stops - main and drone - which control the airflow.
South Asian Harmoniums are assigned the number 412.132 in the Hornbostel-Sachs classification of musical instruments ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hornbostel-Sachs ), indicating:
4 = Aerophones. Sound is primarily produced by vibrating air. The instrument itself does not vibrate, and there are no vibrating strings or membranes.
41 = Free Aerophones. The vibrating air is not contained within the instrument.
412 = Interruptive Free Aerophones. The air-stream is interrupted periodically.
412.1 = Idiophonic Interruptive Aerophones or Reeds. The air-stream is directed against a lamella, setting it in periodic vibration to interrupt the stream intermittently.
412.13 = Free Reed Instruments. Instrument features a reed which vibrates within a closely fitting slot.
412.132 = Sets of Free Reads.
