Szymon has worked with my company on two occasions: for the first time, in the summer of 2002, and more recently in the summer of 2004. During his first sojourn with us Szymon made a set of toe-blocks for a 16' reed, helped with the construction of casework, and helped build a large windchest. The past summer he re-joined us briefly to help with the installation of an organ in Binghamton, NY.

Szymon possesses the indispensable quality for an organbuilder: a will to build organs. Of the many people who pass through organ shops (as I have observed over thirty years in the craft) only a few have what the French call "le feu sacré" - the passion for the organ that makes organbuilding not merely a trade but a vocation. Szymon has this vocation. I am certain that he will e an asset to any organ shop that engages his services and that he will always bring credit on our profession.
