RECENT PROJECTS - JOB LIST

 

The pipe organ in the Chapel of Trinity Episcopal Church New Orleans, LA was built in the 1937 by the Moeller pipe organ company.  In the summer of 2009 we were contacted by the church misic director, Albinas Prizgintas to rebuild and expand the Chapel pipe organ.  In this process we kept the original console shell and installed all new keyboards, pedalboard, stop tabs, stop magnets, pistons, and capture system.  The 1937 chests and pipes were restored and used as a Swell division with judicious borrowing to the Pedal.  A new Great of 3 unit stops was added behind the wonderful reredos.  The position of the reredos is roughly 3'-0" from the back wall of the chancel.  Casework matching the original reredos was constructed between the reredos and rear wall of the chancel on both right and left sides to visually mask the new pipes and chest.
