This is an ongoing project started by the creator and owner of this website who is both a professional singer and executive director of Bach by Design, a company that builds websites and handles public relations. The goal is to reference and account for any and all pipe organs existing on Cape Cod and the Islands. If you have any information about pipe organs, both existing or pre-existing, please contact Sarah Bach by clicking on her name. The only prerequisite for submitting info on an organ is that it must be a pipe organ. Listings for electronic and hybrid organs will not be posted. Please look to other sources for inclusion. Photographs, specifications as well as articles written about an instrument are welcomed. I grew up on Cape Cod and my mother being an organist, I came to the appreciation of the "King of Instruments" rather early in my life. It is my hope that this database will continue to grow and be a resource to all who want to learn more about pipe organs or already know the joy of hearing and seeing them and would like to plan a visit to see one of these fine instruments. My research on Cape organs started back in 1999 when I was involved in a longterm project on an organ committee. I was the research person and through that I accumulated quite a bit of interesting information and photographs. My camera had become an appendage with all the "organ crawls" and meetings of our committee. Being that there wasn't a site dedicated to cataloguing the pipe organs of the Cape and Islands, I decided to create a website and it was launched in 2003. The website was the fruition of a final project for a web design course and continues to grow and evolve as information is sent along to me.

Thank you to all of you who have been so kind to share information about these fine organs. Please do not copy these pages without permission of the creator/website owner. The information offered here is for your perusal but it may not be used elsewhere on another website without permission from the sources provided on each of the organ pages. Please respect the churches, musicians and photographers who have allowed their information to be posted here. Information about the pipe organs has come from tremendous research and the help of many including The Organ Historical Society (OHS) and George Nelson, creator of Organs of the United States and Canada Database (OUSCDB).

2011 Update: According to a report by John Bishop of the Organ Clearing House, the Casavant has been carefully dismantled at St. Peter's Episcopal Church in Osterville and is safely being stored offsite while the church undergoes renovations. New information is forthcoming on a new Noack pipe organ going in to the Chatham UMC; new additions to the Casavant Frères pipe organ at Chatham Congregational Church; a pipe organ once residing at North Falmouth Congregational, pictures of the Hutchings pipe organ at Church of the Messiah and pictures of the Estey pipe organ at Bourne UMC.

2010 Update: Sadly I must report that two lovely organs received electronic components and will no longer be listed on this site. Corpus Christi RC Parish of Sandwich's Hook & Hastings pipe organ was altered in 2010. As I understand, the church has the intention of finishing the 3rd manual in pipes so the organ will be made available when this takes place. St. David's Episcopal Church of South Yarmouth added an electronic division in 2010 to the Roche pipe organ and will no longer be listed on this site.
