2011-02-08 - The organ was expanded in 1989 by Reuter with the addition of nine ranks of pipes. It was further expanded in 2006 by Reuter with the addition of 24 ranks of pipes. The 2006 work also included exchanging the Great and Solo divisions and re-engineering the other divisions to accomodate new chests and pipes. Some revoicing was also completed in 2006 to bring unity to the ensemble. -Database Manager
