Organs and Instruments

Schlicker Organ | Kilgen Organ | Bell Reed Organ | Schulmerich & Steinway Grand

 

As part of the restoration project, a new blower was installed to provide wind for the organ. However, a new mechanical bellows pump was also built, so the organ can be entirely powered and operated by humans, without the use of electricity. At least once a year a hymn sing is held in the chapel, and audience members take turns at the big bellows pump handle.

In 2008 the Organ Historical Society recognized the Kilgen organ as a significant historical instrument worthy of continued preservation.
