Complete description of the selected organ
Calgary, Canada (Alberta) - Knox United Church
Municipal: Calgary
Description nr.: 2043317.
Built by: Casavant Frères (1913) - opus 529
Het orgel in Knox United Church in Calgary is oorspronkelijk gebouwd als opus 529 van Casavant in 1913. In 1956 werd het door dezelfde firma ingrijpend verbouwd en uitgebreid. In 1988 volgde een revisie door de Bolton Pipe Organ Company. Omdat het orgel niet goed tot zijn recht kwam in de grote, maar akoestisch niet gunstige ruimte, is het in 2001 door Casavant andermaal verbouwd en uitgebreid.
