He was joined by Albert Healey Foster in 1871 and the company acquired the name Brindley & Foster. Charles Brindley was born in Baslow in the early 1830s. He retired in 1887 and died in 1893.[2] Brindley was a follower of Edmund Schulze. He built solid instruments with powerful choruses using Vogler’s Simplification system. Pipes placed in chromatic order on the soundboards allowed for a simple and reliable key action and permitted similar stops to share the same bass, keeping both space and cost to a minimum. The Swell organ was often mounted above the Great in the German manner. After the partnership with Foster they began to manufacture more complex pneumatic mechanisms for stop combinations; he also concentrated on the production of orchestral effects. The business of Brindley and Foster was bought by Willis in 1939. List of new organs- Mechanics' Institute Launceston, Tasmania, Australia 1859. Moved to the Albert Hall, Launceston, Tasmania, Australia 1891. Rebuilt 1961.Water organ.
