Notes

2005-11-28 - Identified through online information from James R. Stettner. -- This organ project was a moving, rebuilding, reconfiguring, and reinstallation of an existing Holtkamp organ, Opus 1619, 1943, for First Unitarian Church in Cleveland, OH. - which was itself a rebuild of their existing ca. 1910, 3-manual, 58-register, M. P. Möller, Opus 908. -Database Manager

2006-12-16 - Updated through online information from Dan Clayton. -Database Manager

2007-05-16 - Updated through online information from James R. Stettner. -- Wilson Chapel and the Fine Arts Center are slated for demolition this summer (2007). The Wilson Chapel instrument will be removed and is available for sale. -Database Manager

2007-07-25 - Updated through online information from James R. Stettner. -- The organ was removed between June 20 & 27 by college alumnus James R. Stettner (Puget Sound Pipe Organs) of Seattle. The pipes and console, and a few unit chests will be for sale. But the main slider chests - of peculiar design and with an over-abundance of leather - will not be retained. The chests are arranged with two slider chests-per-division: one for notes 1-20, and the other for notes 21 - 61. In addition, each chest is laid-out diatonically - and each diatonic half has its own slider. So, for every single stoptablet on the Great, Swell, and Positiv, you have four independent sliders moving. -- Positiv is only 56 notes, though keyboard is 61 notes. -Database Manager
