The organ is in the center of the church behind
the pulpit symbolizing the importance of music in worship. From here the
great hymns of the faith are played and heard from everyone in attendance. The organ features a wide variety of sounds to
enhance the worship setting. From the softest "celeste" to the grand "trumpet
en chamade," our organ can convey any mood reflective of the season. In addition to the "regular stops," our organ
was also installed with MIDI capabilities. This adds even greater variety to
the things we can do.
Our reason for going with a combination organ was two fold. First, the humidity of our area is very hard on keeping a constant tempurature. This causes the pipe to go out of tune unless the room has been brought to the accurate tempurature. The digital sounds of course are not effected by this. Second, the cost of putting in such an instrument would have been exhaustive. Therefore, to fill the room and give us the greatest sense of variety we chose, after much discussion with the Rodgers Company, to go with this combination.
