He practiced the full range of organ-building during his early years with the company, eventually becoming an assistant voicer to Charles Fisk, and they first worked together on Opus 78 at House of Hope Presbyterian Church in St. Paul, the largest organ built during Charles's lifetime. In the ensuing years, Pike played a substantial role in tonal design, developing stoplists with organists, working with the pipemakers, and often consulting with acousticians to improve the resonance of a church or hall. Among the instruments he voiced are Opus 84 at Mt. Holyoke College, Opus 95 at SUNY Buffalo, Opus 98 at First Presbyterian Church, Evansville, Indiana, and Opus 100 at the Meyerson Symphony Center in Dallas. He was named Tonal Director and Head of the Voicing Department in 1994. David Pike has overseen the tonal design, workshop voicing, and finish voicing of all Fisk instruments since that time, most notably the year-long voicing of C.B. Fisk's magnum opus in Switzerland at the Lausanne Cathedral. Educated at the Eastman School of Music, David studied music theory and organ performance, earning a Bachelor of Music degree with highest distinction. Along with other members of the Fisk team, he has participated in a number of on-site research studies of classical and romantic organs in north and central Germany (including the former East Germany), France, Spain, and Italy. Mr. Pike is Organist and Director of Music at St. Mary's Episcopal Church, Rockport, Massachusetts. He is married to Morgan Faulds Pike, sculptor, who has designed and executed hand-carved decoration for Fisk instruments since 1977.
