The Great Division is the organ's tonal backbone for congregational singing, featuring Principal sounds, supporting flutes, and a reed.
The Swell Division offers a complete range of Principal Tone, flutes, string stops, and reed sounds for a rich ensemble.
The Pedal Division provides a complementary base with foundation stops and a mixture for upperwork, supporting manual tonal structure.
This division, often the Choir, is accompanimental, featuring light principals and flutes for a fabric of sound.
Principal stops provide the unique organ sound and foundation for the ensemble, present in Great, Swell, and Pedal divisions.
Flute stops are foundation builders, imitating orchestral flutes, offering deep bass or clear upperwork sounds.
String stops offer warm, delicate sounds for enhancement, related to principals but with more harmonic development.
Reed stops use brass reed tongues and resonators for sounds, suitable for solo or chorus use.
Mixtures clarify and extend the harmonic structure of the organ ensemble, typically used in fuller registrations.
Mutations add color to solo combinations, serving as registration 'salt and pepper' for experimentation.
