Fabry Inc. has recently completed two rebuilding projects: St. Mary’s Catholic Church, Huntington, Indiana, and Trinity Lutheran Church, Burr Ridge, Illinois. Using only the original pipework from each existing organ and a few rebuilt wind supply reservoirs, everything else was new, including three-manual consoles built by Fabry, blowers, and new digital voices.
The Huntington project started with 21 existing ranks of pipes, to which used and new ranks of pipework were added. A new set of 21 Mayland chimes was included. The Burr Ridge project started with 19 existing ranks of pipes, to which were added nine ranks of used pipework and a new hooded trumpet.
Fabry has also assembled an 11-rank instrument for the United Methodist Church in Antioch, Illinois. Using the pipework from two Wicks instruments, the remainder of the instrument is new work. For information: www.fabryinc.com.
