The Nichols & Simpson organ in the Church of the Redeemer replaces a Möller/Aeolian-Skinner instrument rebuilt by McManis. The console is constructed of oak with interior of burl eucalyptus. Manual natural keys are of polished bone, sharps of rosewood. The console features rosewood drawknobs and bone faces inset for engraving, and rosewood expression shoes. The mirror-image organ cases, as well as the Antiphonal case, were designed by Frank Friemel and executed by Quigley Custom Pipe Organ Components. The pipe shades draw their inspiration from the chapel’s wrought iron screening.

Those who contributed to the realization of the organ include:

C. Joseph Nichols

Wayne E. Simpson III
