THE ORGANS AT ASCENSIONThe original 1895 Fletcher & Harris Organ (Murray M. Harris), Opus 1, was a modest instrument, under 10 ranks of pipes and two manuals. The original organ was housed in the front of the Church to the left of the altar area, which is now the sacristy.
Our current organ was installed in 1983 by David Harris of the Harris Organ Company of California. The organ is comprised of two manual divisions and a pedal. The organ is fifteen ranks with almost a thousand pipes in an enclosed division (located in the rear balcony of the Church). Fletcher & Harris Organ 1895, Opus 1GREAT ORGAN
