About the Moller Pipe Organ

In 1991, the congregation installed a pipe organ manufactured by Moller Pipe Organ of Hagerstown, Maryland, which replaced the electronic organ that served for many years.

At the time, Moller was the largest pipe organ company in the world whose installations include the Cadet Chapel of West Point, the Radio City Music Hall in NY, and the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception in Washington, DC.

Our two-manual instrument is the 11,820th installation that Moller created, and among the last before the company ceased production. The organ at First Congregational has fewer than a thousand pipes ranging from 16 feet in length to the size of a pencil.

The organ is maintained by The Peragallo Company of Paterson.
