A. E. Schlueter Pipe Organ Company is pleased to announce the contract to build a new 47-rank pipe organ for Iglesia ni Cristo, Central Temple, in Quezon City, Philippines. The resources of this new instrument will be controllable from a IV-manual drawknob console. A unique feature will be that the several divisions of the organ will have organ chambers with contiguous openings into side chapels which can be closed off from the main Temple to allow the organ to also be playable as two separate, albeit smaller, two-manual instruments. To provide support for worship in this grand and prodigious space, we will make use of generous scales and higher wind pressures.
