2021-11-06 - From the March 1970 issue of THE DIAPASON: The Congregational Church, Naugatuck, Conn. has signed a contract with Austin Organs, Inc. for the construction of a new three-manual organ of 44 ranks to replace the present 1902 Hutchings rebuilt by Hall in 1940. A new Austin console installed in 1968 will be used with the new organ. The congregation gathered in 1781. Prior to this date it was known as "The Winter Parish" of First Ecclesiastical Society of Waterbury, as the distance to Waterbury prevented attendance in winter months. The present building is a brick colonial structure designed by Stanford White and erected in 1902. The church proper is nearly square, seating more than 500. It is spacious and uncluttered with good acoustics and diffusion of sound. The new organ will be located as before in two roomy chambers in the front corners of the church, open to both nave and choir, with the old case pipes and open grilles retained as before. The console is on the main floor of the church facing the pulpit and choir. -Jeff Scofield
