| The St. Dominic organ was built by
the Schantz Organ Company of Orrville, Ohio and installed in
April of 2005. The Schantz Organ Company, founded in 1873 by A.J.
Tschantz, (later changed to Schantz) is the oldest and largest
American pipe organ builder still under management of the
founding family. Combining his inventive skills with a love of
music, Schantz began building pipe organs after a brief venture
into the construction of reed (parlor) organs. In the early
part of the twentieth century, A.J.s sons joined him in his
organ building shop. Under their leadership, the growing company
developed a strong reputation as a regional builder. In turn,
their sons learned the skills of the trade and took over the
operation of the company. It was under the leadership of the
third generation (following World War II) that the company
developed its national reputation.
Today, work continues under the management of the third and
fourth generations of the Schantz family. Commissions for the
firm include projects ranging in size from small organs of a few
ranks of pipes to complex designs for some of the largest halls,
churches, and cathedrals in the world.
Attention to detail, extraordinary care in assuring musical
integrity, and superb craftsmanship are hallmarks of their work,
which is why many regard the Schantz Organ Company as Americas
premier organ builder.
The St. Dominic organ is an instrument of thirty ranks
distributed across three divisions. The disposition is as
