Notes

2007-08-24 - Identified through online information from Stephen Hall. -- The organ is mostly hidden behind a screen, although some pipes are visible from the side. The Trompette en Chamade is at the rear of the church; an Antiphonal division is planned but not installed as of 2006. The organ is used regularly for services, recitals and concerts. -Database Manager

2009-05-02 - Updated through online information from Stephen Hall. -- Wicks is currently planning to renovate the organ reusing existing pipes in a new configuration, Antiphonal division to be added, and second console provided (information from Wicks website, accessed 5-1-2009) -Database Manager
