Built by: Harrison & Harrison (1967)


In 1966/1967, a new complex of buildings was constructed for the College-Conservatory of the University of Cincinnati. A large auditorium was also included in this complex, for which Harrison & Harrison built a four-manual organ. The organ was donated to the conservatory and was designed in collaboration with Wayne Fisher, chairman of the Dean's Advisory Committee. The organ consists of a large organ, in which three manuals and the pedal are arranged, and a separate Positive Organ. This is playable from the main console, but also has its own keyboard. It is set up on a rollable platform and can be moved.
