Notes

2007-03-16 - Identified through information adapted from <i>E. M. Skinner/Aeolian-Skinner Opus List</i>, by Sand Lawn and Allen Kinzey (Organ Historical Society, 1997), and included here through the kind permission of Sand Lawn: <br><i> Incorporated pipes and chests of previous Hope-Jones organ; extant; unaltered.</i> -Database Manager

2012-05-21 - Updated through online information from Philip Keil. -- The organ has been completely releathered/restored. Tonal changes over the years: 1970s the 3-rank mixture, badly damaged, was replaced with a Mixture IV built by Laukhuf; 1980s the Trombone 16 was moved from its unenclosed position into the expressive Swell; Since 2000 Swell & Choir expressive shutters were rehinged to open all the way to 90-degrees. -Database Manager
