I’d heard that extremely overpriced M&O organ was having major issues after only a few years of use and was proven unreliable?…..

8000 pipes, WOW!🎉🎉🎉🎉

I can't wait to hear the finished result & see the full Spec!

Thanks for this beautiful story!! 🎹

That organ will be the same size as Notre Dame in Paris. Having been in both churches it’s going to be interesting when Trinity is finished. The voicing and wind pressures will be critical.

BRAVO 👏🏼 another glorious pipe organ and for the great city of New Year and Trinity Wall Street!

I heard the old organ back when I worked for Irving Trust at One Wall Street in the early 1980's and there would be short lunchtime concerts at Trinity. Unfortunately, I have not been back to lower Manhattan since 1983.

Some day I hope to come to NYC and attend services either Trinity or St John the Devine

It's great to see how pipe organ installations are done. I've watched KZread videos of organ building by Flentrop. (The Holy Name Catholic Cathedral here has a 1989 Flentrop organ). Several comments mentioned that the former organ was an Aeolian Skinner. The University of Chicago recently restored their Skinner organ. I hope Trinity does a video of the new organ's inaugural recital. From Chicago, U.S.A.

Hey fellow Chicagoan

This is truly fascinating to learn of, another very beautiful collaborative project utilizing the grand mindsets of the Rosales organ firm, as I remember the other great instrument they did with C. B. Fisk at Rice University… You are in for a sure TREAT. This instrument will surely be special and capable of a formidable scale of different repertoire. Blessings and all the best! 🤍

Don’t forget Disney Hall. I had the pleasure of having champagne after a David Higgs Christmas Concert in the blower room with Manuel and company and got to sit at the the console and play a note or two.

Visited there recently, and I was disappointed to see how boring the console was. But now I see that they're actually still in the process of improving it. Amazing work.

When the organ is finished and completely playing, are you going to release a vinyl disc recording of it?

While I look forward to the new Glatter-Gotz/Rosales instrument, it boggles my mind that they got rid of the beautiful original Aeolian-Skinner organ for that Marshall & Ogletree computer imitation instrument using loudspeakers in place of pipes. If the original A-S instrument is doing fine in Atlanta - and it certainly is - it INDISPUTABLY should have been cleaned, restored, and reinstalled at Trinity Church! WHY did they not do so?!! At least Glatter-Gotz is a deservedly world-renowned organ builder and Manuel Rosales is a top-notch consultant.

Manuel Rosales builds wonderful instruments. He is a master and a star in an otherwise very sketchy organ builder firmament.

sketchy organbuilders? I wonder to what you are eluding

It's a shame they didn't keep and rebuild the Aeolian Skinner. At least another church is enjoying it now.

Would’ve cost less to have refurbished the old one. At least that organ now has a new home in Atlanta.

What is the piece they were playing when he talked about the chamber and the swell shades ?

From reading the comments here, it sounds like they sent it to some place in Atlanta?

The Skinner is restored and installed at John’s Creek United Methodist Church (Atlanta)

BIG MISTAKE! They should have kept the original organ, cleaned, repaired and revoked/reregulated it. That would have been the best solution.

Well, I use a 10” knitting needle when tuning flues and metal flutes. Perfect for “tapping” on the sleeves without causing damage, and also for pulling up on them without having to remove the pipe.

Dumbest thing they ever did was getting rid of the original organ. It’s now working just fine at Johns Creek UMC here in Atlanta.
