2021-02-23 - From the cathedral website: he Cathedral Organ was the last instrument built by the Tellers Organ Co., of Erie, Pennsylvania, and one of their largest. The 88-rank electro-pneumatic organ was designed to be an eclectic and versatile instrument, and was installed in a newly-constructed rear gallery. The dedicatory recital was played on October 21, 1973, by Paul Jenkins, organ professor of Stetson University. The need to replace the console precipitated the restoration of the entire organ. Originally constructed with four manual divisions but only three manuals, the instrument now has a beautiful, new four-manual console, built by Roger A. Colby, of Johnson City, Tennessee. It is made of oak and burl walnut, with bone and ebony keys, and simulated tracker touch. The Peterson digital combination action is equipped with a piston sequencer, full MIDI capability, and 99 separate levels of memory! The craftsmen who service the organ, D. E. Klug’s Sons, Inc., of Lakeland, Florida, supervised the restoration, begun in 1997 and completed in 1999. Minor physical improvements were made within the organ, and its 19 reservoirs were re-leathered. An old set of chimes was replaced with new brass chimes, and a new, state-of-the-art Zimbelstern also was installed. Tonal refinishing was done by Gilbert Adams, formerly of New York City. Many of the existing ranks of pipes were revoiced or rebuilt, including the horizontal trumpet, most of the other reeds, and some of the principal sounds. Mr. Adams also replaced some of the trumpet stops with new pipework from the highly-regarded Laukhuff Organ Company in Germany. The organ project was completed with the installation of several small video cameras at strategic locations within the Cathedral, allowing the organist to view conductors and musicians on a small, 4-channel video monitor built into the console. In addition, a remote microphone transmits to an audio speaker already provided in the console, so that the organist may directly hear musicians performing at other locations in the Cathedral. -Jeff Scofield
