Portsmouth Cathedral – Trumpets

TROMPETE DE MARIS

Our concept of the ‘Trumpet of the Sea’ was installed to blind openings of the nave clerestory and is intended for use at very special moments in the church’s liturgical life, such as Easter, Christmas and Pentecost. The polished trumpets project into the nave from an ash faced wind chest, providing an acoustically excellent sound and providing a contemporary addition to the Cathedral.
