Later, according to guild rules, he continued his training with organ builders in Holland, in Austria, and in the United States. These two pioneers in the organ building reform in the United States got Wolff in touch with the organ world in North America. In 1968, Hellmuth Wolff started his own workshop, in Laval, a town north in the Montreal region. These instruments were built according to specific historic style like French classical style for the instrument at McGill University and nordic baroque aesthetic for the one at Toronto University. These two innovative instruments have set new standards for projects like these in Canada.
Most instruments coming out from our workshop are polyvalent and are definitively modern.
Instruments are not serially produced. Each one is specifically designed to produce a total integration into their future sound and architectural environment. Hellmuth Wolff is very much concerned with the design of an instrument. Frequently, scale models are produced to better visualize the architectural impact.
