Company
Dominic Gwynn started organ building with Hendrik ten Bruggencate in Northampton in 1976, before going into partnership with Martin Goetze in 1980. Initially located in Northampton, the company relocated in 1985 to the Welbeck Estate near Worksop in north Nottinghamshire. A third partner, Edward Bennett, joined in 1985.

Martin Goetze died on 23 August 2015. The company continues to restore and produce organs, but according to its website its focus has shifted somewhat from the original directors' emphasis on re-creating the musical culture of the past. Dominic Gwynn passed away on the 24th may 2024, aged 67.
