Description: Highland Arts Theatre Casavant Frères Organ - view of one of the ranks of wooden pipes inside the organ. These twelve wooden pipes are the extension to the pedal Bourdon 16’ that created the Stopped Flute 8’. 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.
