St Paul’s, K Street, Washington DC

St Paul’s, K Street, Washington DC – the Schoenstein organ

Believe it or not, it was basically an organ-free holiday: we spent far longer in galleries etc than seeing organs.  However, on our last morning we just had time to walk three blocks from our hotel to St Paul’s Church in K Street.  The big Schoenstein there was an organ I’d long wanted to play and I was not disappointed.  Full of gorgeous colours (a Flügel Horn to die for) and with much brighter choruses than I’ve experienced in other Schoensteins.  A wonderful liturgical instrument for a richly Anglo-Catholic church, with a British Rector, too.  And an enjoyable way to end our USA 2024 trip.
