Veritas Organ Company, Inc.

Veritas Organ Company was founded to advance the art of electronic organ building to a new level, a level where uncompromising quality standards are applied to both the musical and mechanical aspects of the instrument. While many electronic organ technologies succeed in producing convincing individual notes based on recordings of organ pipes, none really accomplish the all important task of creating a truly musical and convincing ensemble. Veritas organs succeed where others fail, producing an instrument that is not only convincing but thoroughly musical and enjoyable to play, an inspiration rather than a chore.

Say no to mediocrity
President’s Statement

It is truly encouraging to see that there are still enough churches with sufficient funding and sense of purpose to keep the best pipe organ builders in full time work. However, it is depressing to find that, when such funding is not available, and the purchasing decision has to be to “go electronic,” there seems to be a major shift in qualitative judgment. Very recently, I heard that the chairman of a church organ committee was recommending the purchase of a particular product because “I like the look of their marketing”!!??

To develop, attract or retain an inspirational organist requires an inspirational organ, and if this kind of decision making continues to be the norm then mediocrity will prevail and in a remarkably short time we will find the current decline of standards in church music will have gone so far as to be irreversible. Practicing should be a joy, not a chore. The Veritas Organ Company was founded to provide inspirational instruments to those that care, whether in churches, academic institutions or civic buildings. A Veritas organ sings, as any fine musical instrument should! “Those who have ears to hear, let them hear.”

Our mission is to raise electronic organ building to an art form, and the endorsements we have received attest that we have made a powerful beginning. Most electronic organs available today are bland, boring and have no real ensemble above mezzo-forte. The mixtures, so very important, are badly structured and often monophonic, chorus reeds are generally unpleasant and the tutti is hard and lifeless - plenty of brutish power but no vibrant glory. The technology is available to do better, but the skill and will to do so seems to be cast aside in favor of commercial interest.

Not so with Veritas. Anyone who has talked with us and played or heard our instruments knows our passion and skill in matters of effective chorus structure, tonal design and console design. We gain much knowledge from the ancients but also have our own philosophy on how to achieve truly eclectic instruments without resorting to vast stop lists. We do not have an international sales machine or slick marketing, just a sincere belief that a Veritas organ will rejuvenate your music program. If you have “ears to hear” and care about the things we care about so strongly, contact one of our representatives to arrange a visit to a Veritas installation or to request a CD.
