The Nichols & Simpson organ at First Presbyterian Church in Magnolia represents a departure from what we normally build for our clients, in that it is a modest unit organ. The strikingly simple casework is of oak solids and veneers. The center pipe in each flat is embossed for added visual interest. The instrument, completed in 1991, replaces an aging electronic imitation.
Those who contributed to the realization of the organ include:
C. Joseph Nichols
(engineering, installation, tonal finishing)
Wayne E. Simpson III
(voicing, installation, tonal finishing)
Robert Bartram
(console, windchest construction, installation)
