2020-10-07 - In 1959-1960, Casavant Frères installed a new console and the Choir and Solo divisions were combined into one enlarged Choir division while other tonal additions and changes were made. In 1964, Leggee Organ Co. installed a 4-rank Antiphonal division is installed in the rear gallery. In 1998-1999, Denton Organ Co. carried out an extensive re-leathering operation and installed an electronic 32-foot stop to the Pedal division. In 2009, Denton Organ Co. rebuilt the console and added a 3-rank Principal chorus to the Antiphonal division. -Jeff Scofield
