A Dictionary of Music and Musicians/Sweetland, W.


SWEETLAND, W., established an organ factory at Bath, in 1847. The Church of St. Cuthbert (Wells, Somerset) and the Wesleyan Chapel in Cardiff contain instruments of his making. He also built a chamber organ in his own house, for which he has invented a mechanism whereby the Voix celeste, or tremulant, can be applied to, or withdrawn at pleasure from, a solo stop.
