Notes

2005-06-24 - Identified through on-line information from James R. Stettner. -- Organ is Kimball's version of a free-standing and encased "Artiste" with an attached, projecting keydesk covered by a rolltop. The organ is at the rear of the room on the central axis. The organists back faces front. Original ranks: Diapason, Flute (open wood w/stopped bass), Viole d'Amour, and Vox Humana. An unidentifed person/firm replaced the original Vox Humana (which appears on Gt., Sw., and Ped at 8' pitch only) with a used 8' Aeoline having a canistered bass. -Database Manager
