In 1729, he acquired the citizenship of Glückstadt and worked there as an ''organ and instrument maker'' On the side, he ran a hostelry with an inn.

Organ Builder
Organ building is the profession of designing, building, restoring and maintaining pipe organs. The organ builder usually receives a commission to design an organ with a particular disposition of stops, manuals, and actions, creates a design to best respond to spatial, technical and acoustic considerations, and then constructs the instrument. The profession requires specific knowledge of such matters as the scale length of organ pipes and also familiarity with the various materials used (including woods, metals, felt, and leather) and an understanding of statics, aerodynamics, mechanics and electronics. However, although in theory the builder is responsible for all facets of construction, in practice organ-building workshops include specialists in pipes, actions, and cabinets; tasks such as the manufacture of pipes, metal casting, and making rarely-used components are often delegated to outside firms. After manufacture of all parts of a new organ, the pipes must be pre-t ...

Rowan West
The rowans ( or ) or mountain-ashes are shrubs or trees in the genus ''Sorbus'' of the rose family, Rosaceae. They are native throughout the cool temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere, with the highest species diversity in the Himalaya, southern Tibet and parts of western China, where numerous apomictic microspecies occur.Rushforth, K. (1999). ''Trees of Britain and Europe''. Collins . The name ''rowan'' was originally applied to the species '' Sorbus aucuparia'' and is also used for other species in ''Sorbus'' subgenus ''Sorbus''. Formerly, when a wider variety of fruits were commonly eaten in Europe and North America, ''Sorbus'' was a domestically used fruit throughout these regions. It is still used in some countries, but '' S. domestica'', for example, has largely vanished from Britain, where it was traditionally appreciated. Natural hybrids, often including ''S. aucuparia'' and the whitebeam, ''Sorbus aria'', give rise to many endemic variants in the UK ...

Rudolf Von Beckerath Orgelbau
Rudolf von Beckerath Orgelbau is the name of a German organ-building company based in Hamburg. It was founded in 1949 by Rudolf von Beckerath (born 19 February 1907 in Munich, died 22 November 1976). History Rudolf von Beckerath was born in 1907 in Munich, the son of Willy von Beckerath, a painter, and Luise née Schultz, a pianist. Soon after his birth his parents moved to Hamburg. There he went to school and began training as a mechanical engineer, but then switched to organ building, being impressed by organs built by Arp Schnitger. On the recommendation of Hans Henny Jahnn, he finally went to France in 1929 to put the necessary finishing touches on his training at Victor Gonzales' organ-building in Châtillon-sous-Bagneux, near Paris. After completing his apprenticeship, he worked for a brief time with Frobenius Orgelbyggeri in Denmark, where he took part in building the great organ of the Church of Our Lady in Copenhagen. In 1931 Gonzales asked him to return, and he became ...
