  • Charles Fisk built a three manual organ for Wellesley College's Houghton Chapel in 1981. Consultant was Harald Vogel. The organ was built in North German Baroque style, with the Stellwagen organ of the Jakobikirche in Lübeck as a source of inspiration. The organ was donated to the college by four former students. The organ has a short octave and double upper keys.
  • The organ was completed in 1983. It is the last organ voiced by Charles Fisk before his death.
