THE ORGAN IN SEOUL CATHEDRAL, KOREA

The Anglican Cathedral in Seoul, a lofty cruciform church of granite and brick in the Romanesque style, was built in 1926.
The nave was completed in 1994, to a greatly enlarged plan.
When first installed in 1985, the organ was placed in the north transept.
It was moved in 2006 to the new gallery at the west end of the nave.
