Aeolian Skinner, Opus 1207, Circa 1950 needs a new home.

The cathedral has housed several gallery organs in the course of its history. Many in our diocese will remember the Opus 1207, a beautiful 3-manual instrument which was dedicated in 1953. After the latest renovation of the Cathedral, physical and acoustic changes to the church created questions for the Cathedral Church to answer. At the invitation of the dean, a committee of musicians from around the Diocese met for six months to answer those questions. The recommendation from the committee which was accepted by the Cathedral Chapter, was to sell the gallery organ, renovate the Andover organ currently in the chancel and bring in a new gallery instrument to further build the Cathedral music program. Opus 1207 is listed for sale on the Organ Clearing House website.

PIANO AND HARPsichord

The cathedral recently acquired a gift of a Kawai grand piano.

The cathedral has received the loan of an Italian short-compass single manual harpsichord built by Peter Fisk. It is tuned to A - 415.
