This magnificent pipe organ is the result of a dedicated Cathedral organist and a quality organ consultant working diligently to achieve an exceptional result. The work consisted of a complete review of the existing Austin instrument with new pipework being added in each division. In addition to a complete rewiring of the organ, the flexibility of several stops was dramatically increased by providing new pulldown actions to the existing Austin system.

The crowning jewel of the project was the installation of Antiphonal and Antiphonal Pedal divisions on the west wall of the Cathedral. These divisions are completely new and designed to complement the main organ. They are a stand alone 11 rank pipe organ with tonal complement of several digital stops. The casework is designed to harmonize with the structure and provide a reflective medium for the acoustic coupling of the instrument.
