Goulding & Wood, Inc., organbuilders of Indianapolis, Indiana, has built a new 2-manual,
38-rank organ (Opus 26) for St. Paul's Episcopal Church, Wilmington, North
Carolina. The action features G&W's exclusively designed electro-pneumatic
slider chests. The twin cases facing the chancel and twin cases facing the nave
are of red oak. Facade pipes utilizing the Pedal 16' Principal and Great 8'
Principal are tinted pale gold with natural burnished mouths. The small twin
cases facing the nave were designed to screen the tone openings and the air
handling vents into the nave. The console features multiple memory levels.
Manual keys are maple with rosewood sharps. The nave enjoys very favorable
acoustics with a flagstone floor throughout the building.

David R. Salmen, of
Wessington Springs, South Dakota, has completed installing an organ for St.
Brendan's Parish, Bothell, Washington. The church's organ committee had been
active since the new church was built nearly 10 years ago. In 1990, the Reuter
Organ Company, Lawrence, Kansas, was selected to build a new organ for the
church. Due to circumstances beyond control of the church or the company, the
organ was never built. The church continued to work and plan for a pipe organ
in consultation with David Salmen, Reuter's regional representative. In early
1997, the 1976 Reuter organ (opus 1882) from Grace United Methodist Church,
Waterloo, Iowa, became available and was purchased by St. Brendan's. David R.
Salmen and the Salmen Organ Company were contracted to remove and rebuild the Reuter organ and to complete its installation and tonal regulation in Bothell. The organ was expanded with 12 additional ranks of pipes built by Reuter, and now contains 27 stops, 34 ranks, and 1,953 pipes. A new mircoprocessor based organ control system was installed, as well as a new 2 h.p. blower. The organ control system, from Matters, Inc., of Hermosa, South Dakota, integrates the functions of the console combination action and couplers as well as the switching system. The organ now has multiple memory levels, transposer, digital recording system, and full MIDI capability. Tonal regulation, under the direction of Mr. Salmen, was performed by R. Joseph Wiessinger and Roger Banks. Joseph Adam played the dedicatory recital on January 4, 1998.

Fabry, Inc., Fox
Lake, Illinois, has rebuilt and installed an organ at McHenry County College,
Crystal Lake, Illinois: 2 manuals, 16 ranks. The original gift of a 1956 Wicks
organ came from Richard S. Smith of Chillicothe, Ohio. The moving and
rebuilding costs were donated by Mrs. Grace Hajeck. The rebuilding project
included a new multiplex relay, 32-memory combination action, two chamber
enclosures, blower, solid state shade actions, electric tremolo, rectifier,
console movable platform, pipe tuners, and other items. The console is prepared
for a MIDI resource system. The project was coordinated by Judith Williamson,
chair of the McHenry County College Music Department, Grace Hajeck, and Pat
Marks, both music instructors at the college. The dedication was played by
Thomas Weisflog of Chicago.
