NOTES
The Great Gemshorn was revoiced as was the Trompette-en-Chamade, which also had a 12-pipe
extension added to it. The 2' Octave replaced the original 2' Schweizer Pfeife. The Mixture
was enlarged.
In the Swell, the 8' Viola & Celeste, 1-3/5' Terz, and 8' Hautbois were all revoiced. The
2-2/3' Nasat was revised. The 1-1/3' Nasat was added in 1974 from the 2-2/3' Nasat. The
top octave repeats. The IV Plein Jeu was entirely new.
In the Positiv, the 2' Spill Flöte was moved to the expressive section – replacing the 8'
Spitz Gamba Celeste. The 2' Octave is from the original 1' Klein Prinzipal. The 1' Sifflöte
is the original Great 2' Schweizer Pfeife. The IV Mixture is the former Swell III Plein Jeu
with one rank added.
In the Pedal, the former 16' Rohr Bordun was eliminated. The 32' Resultant was wired-in in
1981. The Pedal 8' Trompette borrow from the Swell was added in 1974. The IV Mixture is the
original II Rauschquint enlarged by II-ranks.
The Cymbelstern operated by a toestud was added in 1974. The Great to Positiv 8' coupler was
also added in 1974. The Swell to Positiv 16' coupler has been disconnected, although the
stoptablet is still present.
