Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception, Kansas City, Missouri 1959 Kilgen Organ Co. (Stoplist: David Schnute from T 12:3:15.) GREAT 8' Diapason 8' Hohlflute 8' Dulciana 4' Principal 2' Fifteenth SWELL 8' Rohrflute 8' Viole de Gamba 8' Voix Celeste 4' Harmonic Flute IV Plein Jeu 8' Trompette Tremolo PEDAL 16' Diapason 16' Bourdon 16' Lieblich 8' Principal 8' Rohrflute 8' Viola 4' Octave 16' Trompette "With a mixture and one or two other stops of modern design, the tonal structure is something of an anachronism for Kilgen. This firm clung tenaciously to stoplists of the 1920s throughout the revolutionary 1950s when the entire industry converted to what some now call contemporary American."
