The organ at Cathedral Church of All Saints is one of the most significant pipe organs in Atlantic Canada.
It was originally built in 1910 by Casavant Frères of Saint-Hyacinthe, Québec, when the cathedral itself was completed.
The instrument was substantially rebuilt in 1961 by the British firm Hill, Norman & Beard, giving it a more English cathedral-organ character rather than a purely French-Canadian Casavant sound. Further modernization occurred in 2011 when a new movable Casavant console was installed with MIDI capability, recording/playback functions, and extensive combination memory.
Current specifications:
4 manuals (keyboards) and pedal
75 speaking stops
Approximately 5,000 pipes
Second-largest pipe organ in the Maritime provinces
Designed for both Anglican liturgical accompaniment and major recital performances.
The 1961 rebuild added and modified several divisions.
Notable additions included:
A Positiv division placed in the chancel over the Bishop's throne
New Pedal stops
A State Trompette
Erzähler and Erzähler Celeste stops in the Choir division
Revoiced principal choruses and Swell reeds to emulate the sound of a traditional English cathedral organ.
