The 115-rank organ built in 1921 by E. M. Skinner for the municipal auditorium in St. Paul, Minnesota, was relocated 1981-85 to Old South Church, saving it from destruction. The decision to acquire it was made very briefly before the auditorium was to be razed. This CD by Minister of Music Harry Lyn Huff of organ works by Carson Cooman is the first CD of the organ in solo organ repertoire.
