San Angelo, TX Carmelite Monastery of Our Lady of Grace – San Angelo, Texas
Newly constructed of local limestone and personally supervised by the Sisters, this award-winning building is designed in an L-shaped formation to seat ninety parishioners and fifteen nuns. In order to accompany singing in both ends of the unusual formation, the rebuilt 1971 Moller organ is installed in a single chamber that allows sound to speak into both directions of the nave. Handsome twin oak cases constructed in our shop by Jack Serdy frame these chamber openings. An austere stoplist of five ranks, laid out over two manuals, is designed to make maximum use of the resources, including a colorful French Trompette that speaks in all divisions. The instrument is completely enclosed except for the façade Principal.
