Speci-fications and plans for the organ were drawn up by organist,Diane Bish, and organ-builder, Pierro Ruffatti.Largest pipe organ in the South and largest European-buildorgan in the United States, the Ruffatti involves several distinctdivisions: Great, Choir, Swell, Positiv, Trompeteria, Antiphonaland Pedal. These divisions are controlled from a five-mannualconsole in the chancel and a one-manual console in the rearbalcony for the carillon and antiphonal organ.Four sets of “en chamade” (horizontal) trumpets highlightthe installation, including an 8-foot Italian-Spanish trumpetand a 16-foot and 4-foot trumpets on the main organ. Fromthe Antiphonal Division, a large 8-foot English State Trumpetis used for festive fanfares and in solo against the full organ.Unlike most American organs, the nearly 7,000 pipes of theRuffatti are housed in an “organ case” to create an effect ofvisual beauty as well as to enhance the sound. This case-workis white with gold-leaf trim, accenting the silver pipework.Crowning the top of the organ on the Positive Division is acymbelstem in the shape of a gold star.Standing in the facade on both sides of the organ case standpipes in the-shape of fountains which symbolize Christ as thefountain of life.
