Juget-Sinclair Organbuilders, Montréal (Québec), Canada, has completed a new organ, Opus 56, for the Cathedral of Saint Joseph, Sioux Falls, South Dakota:

55 stops, 75 ranks, 3,651 pipes; 
58-note keyboards with bone naturals and ebony sharps; 
30-note flat pedalboard with radiating sharps in oak with ebony-faced sharps; 
Mechanical key action, Electric stop action with multi-level electronic combination system and sequencer; 
Solid hardwood case, mortise and tenon construction. 

The new organ combines elements from nineteenth-century French Symphonic style and eighteenth-century Saxon style, including organs by Puget, Poirier & Lieberknecht, Cavaillé-Coll, Gottfried Silbermann, and others. Tuning is in 1/8-comma meantone. The Positif and Récit boxes are placed below the rose window, flanked by the Pédale to the liturgical south and the Grand-Orgue to the north. All the pipes except the pedal basses are more or less on the same level. 

Opus 56 is featured on the cover of the July 2026 issue of The Diapason:
