DETAILS
This instrument is: Extant and Playable in this location
Description of the project from the builder's website: A new 4 manual console has now been installed in Summerall Chapel at the Citadel in Charleston, SC. The first real pipe stop added back to the organ was a Trompette Militaire installed in the rear of the Chapel in early 2017. Renovations have begun on the Great, Choir, and Pedal divisions which will fill the North Chamber. Most of the original 1937 Reuter pipework is to be reused, placed on new wind chests. To be completed late 2018. Future phases include the relocated Swell division, and new Solo division which will both be located in the South Chamber, along with a few more Pedal stops.
