Wahl Organbuilders,
Appleton, Wisconsin
Private residence, New York City
This practice organ was built with two contrasting foundation stops for the practice of the majority of the organ literature. The lower manual has a tapered, open wood flute to balance the stopped hammered metal set on the upper manual. Both stops share a common bass octave of stopped wood. The wind is regulated by a large, double-rise wedge reservoir. The entire instrument is contained in a casework of quartersawn black ash hardwood. The piano-scale keyboards relate to each other and the pedalboard in a standard modern arrangement.
The instrument was built as the third in a series of four similar practice organs. Sister instruments are installed in residences in Neenah and Baileys Harbor, Wisconsin and Richardson, Texas.
