DETAILS
This instrument is: Extant and Playable in this location
Updated through online information from James R. Stettner. -- The organ is installed in two mirror-image cases in the rear gallery with a detached console facing the cases. This, the fifth pipe organ in this congregation, is the first to allow the central Palladian window to be seen. The Great is in the left case, and the Swell in the right. The Pedal Bourdon and Principal ranks are divided diatonically between the two cases and play on electro-pneumatic action. The white-painted cases have mahogany trim, and the detached console is of oiled mahogany. Each of the twin cases has 18 pipes en facade arranged: 3-12-3. The low 24 pipes of the 16' Bourdon form the outer walls of the four case towers. The polished tin facade pipes comprise the lowest 24 pipes of the Great 8' Principal and the Pedal 4' Choral Bass. The organ was premiered on Palm Sunday, April 13, 2014. The Great has a II Mixture prepared-for.
