The Joaquín Lois Cabello organ workshop, located in Tordesillas, Valladolid, Spain, has been dedicated to the construction and restoration of pipe organs since 1972 and has been based in this location since 1985. The workshop has carried out numerous significant projects throughout various regions of Spain, including both the mainland and the islands, and has extended its services across Europe, with a recent focus on Ibero-America, engaging in projects in countries such as Panama, Mexico, and Cuba. The workshop's approach to both restoration and new organ construction is comprehensive, encompassing historical research, fabrication of metal and wood pipes, mechanics, casework, polychrome, gilding, and other decorative aspects.

The philosophy of the workshop emphasizes the recovery of traditional techniques and a deep understanding of different organ-building schools. Each project, whether it is a restoration or a new organ, is approached as a research endeavor. The workshop has shown a particular interest in the Castilian Baroque or Iberian organ, which aligns well with its location in the heart of Castile and León, a region rich in this organ style. This specialization has enabled them to conduct extensive studies and work on numerous Iberian-style organs. Additionally, the workshop has developed the "Proyecto Clarín," a program designed to facilitate the study and performance of Iberian organ music through the provision of appropriate instruments. This initiative includes a system that allows for the loan of these instruments to churches, academic institutions, festivals, exhibitions, or other cultural events, and has seen these organs showcased across various European cities such as Frankfurt, Copenhagen, and Mainz.
