Corinth Reformed Church

R. A. Colby completed a full re-imagining of the organ space at Corinth Reformed Church, creating the foundation for a new instrument of heroic proportions. Only a select number of the finest ranks from the original Möller organ were retained; the balance of the instrument was newly envisioned to form a cohesive tonal palette suited to both concert performance and liturgical leadership.

The majestic chancel casework presents a refined architectural presence at the front of the worship space. Additional casework at the rear was custom designed to house the hooded trumpet and includes solid-carved tracery elements standing nearly six feet tall on either side.
