Our Team
Jeremy Meager
Following 12 years as Managing Director at Viscount Classical Organs, and having seen the company develop and grow from strength to strength in an increasing number of marketplaces, the opportunity arose in 2019 for him to return to the part of the organ world closest to his heart: providing expert advice and completely bespoke installations. Along with his role in Cotswold Hybrid Organs Jeremy also runs our sister business, The Cotswold Organ Company, which specialises in high-quality purely digital installations.
As an ex-cathedral chorister, music scholar at the Royal Northern College of Music, and an established church and recital organist, Jeremy’s passion for organs runs deep and extends to every installation in which he is involved. He and his team of independent organ advisers and installers, themselves also church organists in the main, share a joint mission to serve the religious and scholastic communities, understanding their aspirations for their new instrument and the long-term needs of their institutions.
