The Christ Church Organ

The 3-manual, 53 rank organ of Christ Church was installed in 1966 by the Gress-Miles Organ Company of Princeton, NJ. Its 2,852 pipes range in length from 16 feet to less than an inch. Only two of the registers are visible in the façade – some of the Great 8’ Principal and the Positiv 4” Principal pipes. The John Fairbanks Memorial Zymbelstern was added in 1999. The organ is maintained by Foley-Baker.
