PIPE ORGAN AT CHRIST KING PARISH The Organ Committee at Christ King Parish was formed in 2015 at the request of the Pastoral Council and the Worship Committee to evaluate the condition of our current organ, plus its present and future role in our community. This report will provide details on the failing condition of our organ, the cost for refurbishment vs the cost of replacing the instrument and the vetting of organ building companies. In 2007, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) issued a document entitled, “Sing to the Lord: Music in Divine Worship”. Drawing from several centuries of organ use in the Catholic Church the Bishops stated the following about organs: 87. Among all other instruments which are suitable for divine worship, the organ is “accorded pride of place” because of its capacity to sustain the singing of a large gathered assembly, due to both its size and its ability to give “resonance to the fullness of human sentiments, from joy to sadness, from praise to lamentation.” Likewise,” the manifold possibilities of the organ in some way remind us of the immensity and the magnificence of God” 88.

  • Christine Jakobi- Mirwald
    CHRISTINE JAKOBI-MIRWALD Initials and other Elements of Minor Decoration C H R I S T I N E J AKOBI -M IRWALD A paper on the subject of minor manuscript decoration can well turn out somewhat less than exciting. However, it depends on the point of view, and if the manuscripts of the Liber Extra are a somewhat alien field of investigation to this author, 1 this may well present a chance for a fresh approach. For once, the subject of terminologies in different languages has recently proved to be rather fascinating. 2 In the third edition of my Terminology * I would like to thank Martin Bertram for trusting me with this paper and for acce pting it at the conference, even when I was unable to participate in person, and Susanne Wittekind, who was so kind as to read the text in my place. 1 My primary fields of research have concentrated on rather earlier manuscripts: Die illuminierten Han dschr iften der Hessischen Landesbibliothek Fulda. 1.

  • Trinity's Organ
    Trinity’s Organ The organ at Trinity was dedicated on October 23, 1994. In many ways it can be thought of as a reflection of our own congregation. There are 2,395 pipes in the organ. Trinity congregation, in 1994 was very close to that number in membership and has since then far surpassed it. The pipes in the organ actually form a “congregation of singers” made up of many different shapes and sizes. Some are short, some are tall. Some sing high, some sing low. Some are loud, some are soft. Each person in our sanctuary can combine his or her voice with others to offer up prayers and songs of praise. Each pipe in the organ “building” works along side of others to produce sounds for accompanying our songs of praise. We each have a mouth to sing God’s praise. Each pipe in the organ also has a mouth. The straight edge at the top of a pipe’s mouth is called the upper lip. The bottom edge is the lower lip. Pipes have “feet”, “bodies”, “ears”, and “tongues.” The pipes “sing” in much the same way as humans. Sound is produced when air causes something to vibrate. The sound then comes out through a mouth for all to hear. The pipes receive their breath for singing from a windchest. The sound produced by the pipes is thus a sound that is vibrant – “alive”! The organ at Trinity is an instrument allowed by God to be built for worship – an instrument whose breath will combine with ours to set in motion pipes for praise.

  • THE ACCORDION and the BOOK by Peter Thomas a Bit Over a Decade Ago, I Had the Idea to Make an Accordion Book
    Peter and Donna Thomas. This real accordion book was made in the spring of 2016. The images and text were digitally printed on Peter’s handmade paper and then hand-colored by Donna. Peter: “I bought the Hohner accordion at the Cotati Accordion Festival. It was so beautiful, but no longer could be played, and thus a perfect candidate for becom- ing an accordion book.” THE ACCORDION AND THE BOOK by Peter Thomas A bit over a decade ago, I had the idea to make an accordion book. The book would use the accordion keyboards as covers and the bellows would be cut along the vertical ends, so that when pulled open, it would look like a real accordion book! I play the accordion and couldn’t pass up the opportunity presented by the visual pun, but the real purpose for making the book was to address a point of confusion among book artists: whether a folded paper book should be called an “accordion book” or a “con- certina book.” From playing both musical instruments, I knew that an accordion is rectangular and a concertina is hexagonal. So I made my first real accordion book in tandem with a book made out of a concertina to physically explain why, unless a book is hexagonal in shape, the correct term is accordion book. That first accordion book was followed by another, then another, creating a series. I don’t know exactly how many Donna and I have made so far. After one sells, we make another. As a series, the works are tied together by structure, text, and image.
