Laurel Heights United Methodist Church

To enhance their music program, Laurel Heights United Methodist Church decided to commission a new 36 rank tracker pipe organ for its historic sanctuary.

The Church wished to locate this instrument within the Chancel area. The redesign of the Chancel created opportunities for increased choir capacity, a modified chancel platform with new furnishings to better serve its current liturgical requirements. Improved acoustics, lighting, and sound systems for recording of services were also a part of the project. A current phase of work will improve accessibility in the Classroom and Fellowship Hall Wing.
