THE CHAPEL ORGAN
The Chapel organ is a so-called "unit" organ with two manuals and pedal. Its resources are
drawn from a specification of seven registers, composed of eight ranks of pipes, and two
extensions. There are 500 individual pipes in the organ. The same classical voicing
techniques are found in the Chapel organ as are in the Nave organ."
