Notes

2007-01-30 - Updated through on-line information from James R. Stettner. -- At an April 1988 visit, the organ was free-standing and encasd on the right side at the rear of the room. The façade contained 25 pipes: 17 Gt. 8' Diapason pipes, 4 Gt. 4' Principal pipes, and 2 dummies. The Open Diapason is the only unenclosed rank. The organ has one manual chest with two sets of pallets - one at either end. Chest order is: façade, Gr. 8' Diapason (unenclosed), 8' Dulciana, 4' Principal; Sw. 8' Stopped Diapason, 4' Flute, 8' Gamba. The Pedal 16' Bourdon is original, and the Pedal 16' Gedeckt was added on tubular-pneumatic action. The reservoir had clearly been releathered. Much of the pipework is stamped with names other than those of the stops on the organ. The organ seems to have perhaps been made from recycled ranks from another instrument. -Database Manager
