C. B. Fisk, Op. 91
To be dedicated at the IOU Conference in September 2013, Opus 91 consists of 45 stops, 2,838 pipes over three manuals and pedal. The French Baroque-inspired instrument, built in 1987, was previously installed in a specially constructed concert hall at a private residence. In addition to its use for recitals, the organ will be a pedagogical resource, providing students and faculty with an instrument with an 18th- to early-19th-century "accent."
