Quimby Pipe Organs

As a part of the preparation for Opus 77, First United Methodist Church in Athens has undertaken a renovation of Sanctuary and Chancel which include a ceiling treatment over the existing plaster vaulting for greater acoustical reflectivity, removal of carpet and installation of limestone in the Nave, and installation of hardwood in the Chancel. Here are a few shots of the work in progress.

While installation of our Opus 76 (4 manuals, 100 ranks) is in progress at Dunwoody United Methodist Church in Dunwoody, Georgia, construction is also underway for Opus 77 (4 manuals, 65 ranks) at First United Methodist Church in Athens, Georgia. Shown here is a rendering of the proposed facade and some views of the Athens console in progress.

Flyhouse and Quimby Pipe Organs are making BEAUTIFUL MUSIC together at Dunwoody United Methodist Church. Watch Flyhouse install new windchests as part of extensive renovations to the church, constructed in 2001. According to Quimby, the organ will be entirely new mechanically, and will make copious use of high-quality, vintage pipe work from two 20th century American organs: 1911 Ernest M. Skinner Company, Opus 195, formerly of Williams College in Williamstown, MA and 1939 Casavant, Opus 1600, formerly of Immaculate Conception Seminary in Darlington, NJ. Flyhouse is always glad to stay in tune with our clients’ needs. #howwefly
