2022-11-02 - Never installed here. From Sedona Conservatory website: "The instrument was sold to a congregation in the Episcopal Diocese of Virginia, and in 1999 was moved from Oberlin’s Finney Chapel to the Indianapolis organ builders Goulding and Wood who had been chosen for the anticipated installation. Shortly thereafter, when the purchasing church attempted to secede from the Diocese, the organ became part of a legal battle lasting the better part of a decade. Ultimately, the church and its holdings, including the historic Finney Chapel Aeolian-Skinner, became the property of the Diocese, which had no idea what to do with an instrument of this size and stature. With the organ in storage in Indianapolis, the Diocese decided to sell it." -Paul R. Marchesano
