TRINITY COLLEGE CHAPEL, PERTH

 

 

The College is a comparatively new one, replacing the old Christian Brothers College which was situated in Adelaide Terrace.  The College is situated on the banks of the Swan River on the rover reserve behind two great sporting arenas (the WACA Ground and Gloucester Park) and alongside the Causeway.  The Chapel is circular with the organ placed on a gallery in a prominent position where it speaks with authority into the chapel.  The acoustic of the chapel lends itself well to the organ.

 

This important organ, of outstandingly high tonal, mechanical and visual quality, was built in 1984 by Lynn Kirkham.
