Summary

Description
Español: Altar mayor de la iglesia de la Compañía de Jesús, una iglesia jesuita situada en el centro de Quito, Ecuador. El exterior del templo no deja entrever la belleza de su interior, con una larga nave central, decorada de forma exquisita conpan de oro, yeso dorado y trabajos de madera, lo que la hace la iglesia más ornamental de Quito. El templo es uno de los ejemplos más destacados arquitectura barroca española en América y está considerada la más hermosa de Ecuador. El órgano de tubos está situado en el coro, sobre la entrada principal, y es el de segundo mayor tamaño en Quito que aún está en funcionamiento. El instrumento, del que se hace uso en especiales festividades, se construyó en los Estados Unidos en 1889 y cuenta con 1104 tubos en total.
English: Main altar of the Church of the Society of Jesus (La Iglesia de la Compañía de Jesús), a Jesuit church in Quito, Ecuador. The exterior of the building gives no hint of the sumptuous internal decoration. Its large central nave is profusely embellished with gold leaf, gilded plaster and wood carvings, making it the most ornate church in Quito. One of the most significant works of Spanish Baroque architecture in America, it is considered the most beautiful church in Ecuador. The pipe organ is located in the choir, over the main entrance, and is with 1104 pipes the second biggest pipe organ in Quito that is still working: it was built in the United States in 1889, and is used during special festivities.
Deutsch: Hauptaltar der Kirche der Gesellschaft Jesu (Iglesia de la Compañía de Jesús), einer Jesuitenkirche in Quito (Ecuador). Die Außenansicht vermittelt keinen Eindruck der Schönheit des Inneren, mit dem großen Kirchenschiff, das ausgiebig mit Blattgold, vergoldetem Putz und Holzschnitzereien ausgeschmückt ist. Die Kirche gilt als die am aufwändigsten verzierte in Quito. Das Gotteshaus ist eines der bedeutendsten Bauwerke der spanischen barocken Kolonialarchitektur in Amerika und gilt als die schönste Kirche in Ecuador. Die Orgel in im Chor oberhalb des Haupteingangs lokalisiert und ist die zweitgrößte Orgel in Quito, die heute noch bespielbar ist. Sie wurde in den Vereinigten Staaten 1889 gebaut, hat 1104 Pfeifen und wird bei ausgewählten Festlichkeiten gespielt.
Українська: Трубний орган в церкві Товариства Ісуса (La Iglesia de la Compañía de Jesús), єзуїтській церкві в Кіто, Еквадор. Її великий центральний неф рясно прикрашений сусальним золотом, позолотою та різьбленням по дереву, що робить цю церкву найбільш декорованою в Кіто. Вона вважається одним із найвидатніших творів іспанської барокової архітектури в Америці та найприкрашенішою церковою в Еквадорі. Орган розташований над головним входом. В ньому 1104 трубки, що робить його другим найбільшим працюючим органом в Кіто. Його зібрали в 1889 році в США і використовують під час спеціальних урочистостей.
