Opus 28 Emily: A House Organ by A. David Moore

The house organ Op. 28, Emily, was designed and built by A. David Moore of Pomfret, Vermont, assisted by Thomas Bowen, John Atwood, and Thaddeus Stamps. Commissioned by Miriam Zach, Mikesch Mücke and Margaret Zach for the International Women Composers Library in August 2004, it was installed in July 2005 in Gainesville, Florida. The clarity and subtle beauty of the sound of the pipes of Op. 28, its lovely solid wood-carved casework with bench, and direct precise key action all contribute to the aesthetic pleasure and salubrious experience of the organist and listeners alike in an innovative design. The book is a chronicle of its installation.
