Description: Highland Arts Theatre Casavant Frères Organ - view of the Pedalboard, Swell, Chorus and Crescendo Pedals and Toe Studs. The 2,045 pipe, three-manual pipe organ made by the famous Casavant Frères in Quebec is the largest such instrument on Cape Breton Island. The 18-ton organ underwent $15,000 in repairs to its bellows in 2008. It was purchased for the new church in 1910 for $5,595. The Highland Arts Theatre is a historic building, first constructed as a Presbyterian Church, now operating an arts and culture centre in Sydney, Cape Breton Regional Municipality, Nova Scotia, Canada. It was initially constructed as St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church. In 2014 St. Andrew's reopened as the Highland Arts Theatre, a live play and film theatre and concert venue located in Sydney's waterfront district.
