Notes

2007-05-10 - Identified through online information from James R. Stettner. -- This is an essentially new organ created from existing pipework and other used and new pipework. New E-P slider chests were installed for manual divisions. E-P unit chests are employed for the Pedal. The existing console from the previous organ was retained as was the Lucas combination action. A new Peterson solid state relay was installed. And a simple but handsome case of Spanish cedar with facade pipes of the Great 8' Principal cover the original chamber opening holding the Swell. -Database Manager

2018-02-23 - Updated by Sean Haley, who maintains the organ.<br> The organ is as was rebuilt by Marceau in 1997. The organ is in respectable condition and no changes have been made. The church, having hired mostly pianists and choral musicians, tend not to play the organ very often relying more on the piano located in the front of the church for musical accompaniment. -Database Manager
