  • History of the Cathedral Organ
    History of the Cathedral Organ The first worship service was held at the Cathedral of the Incarnation on Trinity Sunday, 1911. At this time, only the undercroft was completed, and the building was designated the “pro-cathedral”, meaning the building was designated to someday be the Cathedral. No records can be found of what instrument was used between 1911 and 1931, when the upper church was finally completed. Neither can any record be found of the instrument used in our sanctuary between 1931 and 1941. In 1941, the original Cathedral organ was purchased from the Möller Organ Company of Hagerstown. The instrument at the time had a total of fourteen ranks of pipes and chimes. The purchase price was $5,825, for Möller Opus 7042 (about $91,000 in 2014 dollars). Completion of the organ, envisioned to be 43 ranks, was planned as soon as funds were available. In 1960, the Cathedral received a bequest by Ella Jarrett and Mary Helen Ziegler for additions to the organ. A contract was given to the Aeolian-Skinner Organ Company of Boston for the additions (Opus 1386). Six additional ranks were added to the swell organ and seven ranks were added to the choir organ. The cost of this work was $15,200 (about $119,000 in 2014 dollars). A proposal to add an additional 11 ranks to the great organ and five ranks to the pedal organ was rejected by the Chapter as too costly. The cost of these additions at the time was $17,550. By 1971, the organ was in need of an overhaul.

As I write this letter, we are still definitely in the throes of winter, but the sun is staying up longer, and the angle of its light is starting to change. This brings us hope of spring arriving – eventually. It is easy to become socially isolated in these weeks of deep freeze, when we are told to “stay inside,” “keep off the roads,” and when rehearsals, concerts, and even religious services are canceled! Yes – of course we can connect on social media, and on the telephone, but there is something special and unique about real, in-your-face physical interactions with friends, family, and colleagues. During January CHVAGO sponsored two such “in-you-face” events that brought many of us together to celebrate music and friendship: On the 25th our former Dean, Craig S.

  • The Bombarde American Guild of Organists — Harrisburg Chapter from the Dean
    October 2013 www.harrisburgago.org The Bombarde American Guild of Organists — Harrisburg Chapter From the Dean Dear Colleagues … I don’t know about you, but I was proud of and excited about the wonderful performance by our scholarship students at Messiah College’s superb new music hall. What a wonderful gift to all of us who have been in this profession for a good while to see young people, right about where we were at their age, discovering the pipe organ for the first time. It is amazing, when you think of it, how well these young people played. Most of them are novices to the organ … but with a secure keyboard foundation from the piano … in a relatively few lessons they make real music on the King of Instruments. I remember well discovering the organ as a serious musical instrument. I was in the sixth grade, and suddenly realized that this was a wonderful noise that was used to accompany our choir and congregation. The brilliance of the reeds, and the bite of the mixtures just caught my imagination. And to have all that power and glory at your fingertips is indeed a trip at a young age. For that matter … it still is at my age! Our mission is to promote My sincere thanks to Dr. Shawn Gingrich for his significant work to make the the organ in its historic program possible. Introducing all these students and their teachers to this new and evolving roles, to instrument took a good deal of time, and as a Chapter, we are grateful to him for not encourage excellence in only helping the students acquaint themselves with the organ and the room, but for the performance of organ allowing the Harrisburg Chapter to be the first to officially hear a concert on this and choral music, and to instrument.
