The Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) detector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is ready for first collisions. The main physics goal of the experiment is the search for the Higgs boson and new particle phenomena. If the Higgs mass is lower than 150 GeV, the Higgs electromagnetic decay into two photons is the cleanest channel for discovery. In this mass range the signal lies over an irreducible background and this demands a high resolution e.m. calorimeter. The design and performance of the CMS e.m. calorimeter (ECAL) with test beams, cosmic rays, and first LHC beam events in 2008 will be presented. The status of the calorimeter and plans for calibration with first collisions will be discussed. CMS ECAL is ready for exciting physics and design goals are within reach.
