The Cleveland Institute of Music commissions a new pipe organ
We are pleased to announce that C.B. Fisk has been selected to build a two-manual organ for the Cleveland Institute of Music. The instrument will reside in the recently renovated, state-of-the-art Kulas Hall, a venue designed with cutting-edge acoustic technology to provide an unparalleled concert and educational experience. Delivery is scheduled for 2028.
In memory of Virginia Lee Stone
Virginia Lee Stone passed from this life at her home on Dolliver’s Neck, Gloucester, on January 19, 2026 after an extended struggle with Alzheimer’s disease. Virginia Lee was married to Charles Fisk in 1978 at The House of Hope Presbyterian Church, St. Paul, MN, while Charles was completing his magnum Opus there.
“the Devil’s box of whistles!” –A new organ for an historic church.
Trinity Church has been a beacon on the Newport, Rhode Island horizon for the past 299 years, a prominent landmark for mariners, and the oldest surviving church building in Newport. Now a new Fisk organ, Opus 170 has been commissioned honoring the Church’s tricentennial year.
We are proud to contribute to this extraordinary milestone in the long history of Trinity Church.
