About the company

Just two years after the installation of a major pipe organ in Auer Hall on Indiana University's Bloomington campus, the Jacobs School of Music acquired a second major instrument built by C.B. Fisk. The acquisition makes the school home to three Fisk organs, the largest number of instruments by the builder in any one location in the world. The third, known as Opus 142, is a three-manual, six-stop, practice organ installed in 2012 in the Music Addition practice facilities.[1][2]

In its 50 years C.B. Fisk, Inc. has completed over 90 instruments in 23 U.S. states, Switzerland, Japan, and South Korea.[3]
