Builder: Holtkamp Organ Co, Opus 1742, 1961 Manuals: 3 Divisions: 4 Stops: 47 Ranks: 64 Pipes: 3296 Builder: Pasi Organ Co, Opus 27, 2019 Manuals: 2 Stops: 38 Ranks: 47 GRAND TOTAL: 111 ranks Notes: Vatican II (1962-65) came after the 1961 Holtkamp was built. With the increased emphasis on congregational participation, the 64 rank organ, mildly voiced, did not fulfill the Abbey's needs. Given the notoriety of the original organ, there was a great desire to preserve it unchanged, yet be able to lead a full congregation. The solution, installed in 2019/2020 is Martin Pasi's addition of a second complete organ, interwoven physically with the Holtkamp in unused space behind and to the sides of the red grill. The large pipes of the Grand Pedal flank the red screen, with the Grand Great and Grand Swell mounted above the Holtkamp Great and Swell. The large wood pipes were made by the monks of the abbey in their woodshop.

| Note: Cornet V at 6-2/5' is an independent 5-rank stop including
7ths and 9ths. The stop tab
normally brings in other unison and quint ranks which can be shut
off via an unmarked toggle switch on top of the relay in the blower
room. In the rich reverberation of this room, the Cornet
effect is extraordinary. (Note that this differs slightly from the
Cornet documented in a Cleveland organ in the book by John
Ferguson.) |
