CITY HALL, PORTLAND, MAINE.
This organ was built by the Austin Organ Company, of Hartford, Conn.,
in 1912. It was presented to the city of Portland by Mr. Cyrus K.
Curtis, of the Saturday Evening Post, in memory of the late Hermann
Kotschmar, whose "Te Deum" is well known in the United States. The
organ is in a handsome case on the platform at one end of the hall and
is entitled to take its place among the world's great instruments. It
is certainly a coincidence that those who have been associated with Mr.
Hope-Jones in business now rank as the foremost organ builders in
America, as witness this fine organ and that in the Cathedral of St.
John the Divine in New York.
The Portland organ has four manuals of 61 notes, CC to c|3|, and pedal
of 32 notes, CCC to g. There are 88 sounding stops and 33 couplers.
