Circumstances Surrounding the Purchase of the Organ for the Holy Trinity Parish Church in Daruvar

Summary/Abstract: The organ at the Daruvar parish church was procured in 1925 from Venceslav (Václav, Vjenceslav) Holub, a Požega organ builder. The process of ordering and building a new organ took place from January to May, and during that time V. Holub visited Daruvar several times. During that visit, he examined the current organ and suggested other options for creating a new one. On July 12, 1925, the organ was blessed. The original correspondence between V. Holub and the then Daruvar priest Mijo Ettinger was used as a source for this paper. The Daruvar parish office has part of the correspondence, which includes four letters signed by V. Holub that were written in Požega on January 15, February 23, and 26, and May 2, 1925. The cost estimate for the organ’s construction, which includes a description of the current old organ, is attached to the first letter. A catalog example of model VIII, which was used to order the casing, is also preserved among these correspondences. Reconstructing the events can be done quite precisely based on the correspondence that has been preserved.
