The Alexander Allen Memorial Organ (1934)
Austin Organ Company, Opus 1862, James. B. Jamison, Designer
“Saint Paul’s provides a near-perfect environment for organ music. Its warm, even acoustic carries the sound of the organ from chancel to narthex with virtually no change in timbre or volume. This is a true luxury!”
- Schoenstein & Co, Master Organ Builders and Restorers
Beautiful decorative pipes hide the organ loft and the 3,000+ working pipes within it.
