TRANSLATION:

In the State of Alagoas there is a rare French Debierre-Gloton organ from the beginning of the 20th century, a portative model with polyphonic pipes and mechanical traction. This is the only copy of this model in Brazilian lands that we have news. According to researcher Handel Cecílio, the organ is in good condition, but in need of restoration, something that is already in the process of happening.
