Abstract : Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris

This paper is a preliminary investigation and documentation of the historic pipe organs of Peninsula Malaysia. It aims to create sustainability and heritage/preservation, using appropriate international recognized documentation is needed. While all the known and extant pipe organs in various places in Malaysia will be documented with brief histories and specifications, older, historic instruments from former colonial eras receive a far greater focus. Pipe organs represent a significant part of Malaysia’s history and heritage, so the processes which are set out in this research project provide some pointers to retaining and continuing to vivify the instrument within the various communities charged with their preservation, care and maintenance. The proposed historical instruments for this study are Organ at Dewan Filarmonic Petronas, St Mary's Cathedral, Kuala Lumpur and St Andrew Church, Kuala Lumpur
