2020-11-26 - The organ is a very impressive one, the lowest pitch being a 32' Bombarde. There is also a 32' resultant, and a 32' Dulcian. The organ was the largest i have seen, and there is also a very impressive stone cathedral surrounding it. The 32' Bombarde echoes for about 3 whole seconds through the church. -Solomon Wickline
