The Gabriel Kney pipe organ at Grace and Holy Trinity Cathedral is considered one of Kansas City’s finest. Mr. Kney developed the specifications for the organ, with the original plan being to place the organ on the floor. Once it was realized that a large number of seats for the congregation would be lost, it was decided that a balcony would be built. The organ was installed in 1981, the first of its kind in the Greater Kansas City area, along with the balcony at the back of the Nave. It was cleaned and renovated in 2004.
