Faith - Sonoma, CA - Dedicates New Organ

On Sunday, October 11th, 2009 the congregation of Faith Lutheran Church, Sonoma, CA, dedicated a new organ to the glory of God.

Several anonymous donor families made possible the installation of Faith's new Ahlborn-Galanti organ. Ahlborn-Galanti organs are manufactured in Italy by Ahlborn Organs.  Faith's new organ has the equivalent of 29 ranks with 157 independently voiceable stops.

Faith Lutheran Church of Sonoma Valley has experienced considerable development in its music program. With the arrival of new Choir Director, Peggy Carroll, and Organist/Worship Accompanist, Mark Rasmussen, Faith now has an active 19 voice choir with an additional vocal trio ensemble to enhance our weekly Sunday Morning worship service. Faith's congregation also uses piano, flute, oboe, French horn and violin throughout the year as well. A festive dedicatory recital is planned for early 2010 for the greater Sonoma community.

The recent installation of our Ahlborn-Galanti 2200 at Our Lady of Hope Parish in Ipswich, MA has far exceeded my expectations. Up to the present we have had a small pipe organ (8 ranks) in a rather large building. The new organ utilizes the pipes and adds an almost infinite variety of sounds. One parishioner remarked to me, “It sounds as if we are in a cathedral”. I am glad we chose Ahlborn-Galanti. The price was within our range and it was a delight to work with the representatives of the company during the time of planning and installation. In fact the organ was installed about five weeks after I signed the contact. This new instrument will enhance our worship for many years to come. If you are considering a new organ or wish to expand the sounds of a present pipe organ, I would recommend that you check out Ahlborn-Galanti.
