The Karl Wilhelm Organ |
|||||||
|
Our magnificent 3 manual tracker organ was installed in the chancel of the church in the spring of 1982 and dedicated to the Glory of God and in memory of those who died in World Wars I and II. Installation required considerable changes in the chancel, including moving the altar forward and arranging choir seating to either side. It also prompted the design and production of our award winning Benedicite kneelers, needlepointed by a dedicated group of church members. The organ, built by the Karl Wilhelm Company of Mont St. Hilaire, Quebec, has a classical continental design. The case is made of white oak and the pipe shades are of carved butternut. Voiced in the classic French style, its 36 stops and 50 ranks are capable of interpreting a wide variety of organ literature. It is the only modern-vintage tracker organ in a Toronto Anglican church.
