Zimbelstern

Housed in a natural color German oak case, maintaining the traditional configuration of a central
T-form. The main case houses the Hauptwerk, with the Schwellwerk above and behind it. Two pedal 
towers stand at either side, and the Riickpositiv is on the main floor behind the console, in the 
midst of the choir seating, where it is in an excellent location for continuo work. The stop and 
combination actions are electric, with four memory levels. The Spanish Trumpet is mounted 
horizontally on the main case with copper resonators, below the case pipes of the 8' Principal, and 
the rotating star of the Zimbelstern is at the same level. The Cornet V is mounted in the upper 
facade of the same case, flanking pipes of the Pommer. Facade pipes of the Riickpositiv are From 
the 8' Holzgedackt, and the Pedal towers display pipes of the 16' Principal. Paul Tepker, minister 
of worship and fine arts, played the dedication service on November 18, 1990. The inaugural recital 
was played by Edward Murray on January 27, 1991.
