The console of our classical organ began its life in 1985 as Opus 122 of the Associated Organ Builders company.  It was a two-manual analog organ with nearly one thousand tone generators and almost fifty speakers.

Now, we have rebuilt the organ using components from the Phoenix Organ company of England.  The console contains a modern, midi-enabled digital organ of 39 stops over two manuals and pedals.  It has two 32 foot pedal stops, and six channels of speakers.  With a primary specification of English sounds, the organ also has a second specification of Baroque stops, a third of orchestral sounds, and a fourth voiced toward the theatre organ sound.

The rebuild was complete on August 13, 2003.  It is the first Phoenix Organ in the Southwestern United States.  We're planning on completing a recording on the organ in the near future.  Pictures will be added to this page soon.
