MECHLIN (Malines).
THE CATHEDRAL (St. Rumbold).—The organ, which stands at the west end, is an old ordinary-looking instrument. In the south aisle of the Choir is a modern Gothic organ. In the Cathedral of the Primate of Belgium one might expect that there would be finer instruments. 1872.
ST. JEAN.—At the west end is a modern Renaissance organ. A white plaster wall is brought so forward, that it stands flush with the front of the case, the effect of which is not good. 1872.
NOTRE-DAME.—In the south transept, over the Choir aisle arch, stands an organ with its Choir in front, good in tone, and in a very clean and good condition, so that I fancied it to be a new instrument. I was, however, told that it was old. The pipes were left their natural colour, and there was no gilding about the wood-work. It is a very pretty instrument on a moderate scale. 1872.
