A.E. Schlueter Pipe Organ Company
style='font-weight:normal'>, Lithonia, Georgia, has built a new organ of 12
ranks for Lowell Presbyterian Church, Lowell, North Carolina. The church's
previous instrument was a four-rank unit organ of stock design. The new organ
console is built of white oak. Console interior is mahogany with clear maple
dividers. Keyboards feature tracker touch, and the console is fitted with a
Peterson multi-level combination system. The layout of the chancel and the
architecture of the church called for installation in one chamber. Additional
chamber opening was made on the nave exposure for better egress of tone. It was
decided to place the organ under one common expression to provide better
dynamic control when used with choir. The specification was designed with the
accompanimental role of foremost consideration. The led to the use of generous
pipe scales to provide warmth and body for choral and congregational
accompaniment. The organ was tonally finished by Daniel Angerstein and John
Tanner.
