St. Olaf College

Boe Memorial Chapel
Northfield, MN 55057


Builder: Schlicker Organ Co, 1960
Manuals: 3
Ranks: 75
Action: Electropneumatic

Notes: The organ was dedicated with two recitals by Flor Peeters October 9 and 10, 1960. The organ, one of Schlicker's largest, was designed by Herman Schlicker in cooperation with Paul Ensrud of St. Olaf and Raymond C. Boese. The organ is located in the balcony of the chapel and is voiced on low wind pressure. The Trompeta Real projects horizontally from the front of the case.
-- Information from "The Diapason", December 1
, 1960
-- The Great and Swell are to the right of the window, with Pedal and Positiv to the left. Antiphonal was prepared. Console had standard Schlicker tripper combination action, which eventually failed and was replaced. Photos from Internet. Third photo shows David N. Johnson at the Schlicker console.
-- Stoplist unification is to the best of my recollection, having studied the organ in detail for a graduation honors paper. David Engen
