Schantz Organ
Germantown United Methodist Church
1978 1995
The Schantz pipe organ was dedicated on July 9, 1978, two years after the completion of the current sanctuary. Given by the family of Ruby Owings, it was dedicated as the Mary Ella Mosby Tyler organ to honor her faithful service as organist since 1939. The instrument underwent a complete tonal re-voicing and expansion in 1995 owing to a generous gift from Barbara Hamilton. This expansion brought the organ to its current size of 42 ranks.At the same time, the console was updated from pneumatic operation to electronic circuitry including MIDI interface. Acoustical enhancements to the sanctuary during the 2003 renovation have further augmented the tonal qualities of the organ.
