The Nichols & Simpson organ at First Presbyterian Church in Little Rock replaces an E. M. Skinner instrument that was built in the Steere factory and had been rebuilt and severely altered several times. The moveable oak three-manual console features an interior of burl eucalyptus with exotic wood inlays. The organ case was designed by Frank Friemel and executed by Quigley Custom Pipe Organ Components. One unique feature of this organ is the commanding Tuba Mirabilis. This stop is hooded and speaks on 15″ of wind pressure. The Tuba is located at the top of the organ in its own expression box which opens into the Choir/Solo expression box, thus giving this stop double expression capability.
Those who contributed to the realization of the organ include:
