As we prepare to serenade you with hauntingly beautiful melodies for the The Historic Irvington Halloween Festival Spooky Organ Concert on October 22nd at 6pm,  let us take you on a tour of our stunning organ and the captivating stained glass window above.

Behold the 952 pipes of our pipe organ nestled in the heart of the choir loft, with even more concealed in chambers on either side. From its humble beginnings in 1942 as a 6-rank Wicks Opus 2476, considered temporary due to wartime restrictions, to the grandeur of the 13-rank Wicks Opus 3131 in 1951. In 2009, a major transformation took place - a brand new console with three manuals and digital voicing, providing 53 total voices. It not only improved performance but also ensured music never falters, even when the pipes need tuning.

Above the organ, our magnificent rose window is an ode to Mary, adorned with traditional symbolism. The rose window was generously donated by James and Julia Mahan and holds a special secret - it's divided into four segments, each symbolizing their four daughters.

When you attend the concert, take a moment to look behind you and up. You'll see the rose window and the grand organ with a whole new appreciation and understanding. See you there!
