The organ at St. Mark is a 3-manual, 28-rank Austin/Canarsa/Klann currently being cared for by Rappahannock Organ Company. It began its life in 1917 as an Austin installed in Monumental Methodist Church in Portsmouth, Virginia. The oldest rank of pipes is the original 1917 Clarinet. The newest set of pipes is found in the Great Chorus, added by Austin in the 1970's.
