This page features many talented friends. See also: ChurchofthePalmsDel for other interesting videos. Ed and I had a ten rank pipe organ in our Boynton Beach residence which we "rescued" from a church in NJ during our 2004 summer vacation thus saving a venerable 50 year old Reuter pipe organ (Opus 1087) destined for extinction for want of a new home while the church pursued purchase of an electronic instrument. That instrument is now under reconstruction in our newest Boynton Beach home.

With improvements over the six rank instrument brought to FL from NJ, the first installation at our home had the following specifications:

Great

8' Diapason




8' Bourdon (metal)
8' Gedeckt (Swell)
8' Viole (Swell)
8' Celeste (Swell)

4' Viole (Swell)
4' Celeste (Swell)
2 2/3' Nazard (from Bourdon)




2' Fifteenth
16' Dulzian (Swell)
8' Trompette (Swell)
4' Clarion (Swell) Chimes 25 tubes




Swell

8' Gedeckt (wood)
8' Viole
8' Celeste
4' Flauto Traverso
4' Viole (from 8')
4' Celeste (from 8')

2' Flauto Traverso (from 4')
1 1/3` Tierce (from Gedeckt)
16' Dulzian (from Vox Humana)

4' Clarion (from Trompette) Tremulant - valve

4' Octave (from Great)
16' Fagotto (1/2 length 12 pipes - extension of Swell Trompette)
8' Trompette (from Swell)
4' Clarion (from Swell)

In December 2009 the instrument was dismantled and moved to our new home where it is presently being rebuilt and is scheduled to include more than 20 ranks. Stayed tuned!
