Notes
2007-08-28 - Identified by Jeff Scofield through information in Möller factory documents. -Database Manager
2010-01-25 - Updated through online information from Jeffrey McIntyre. -- The parish has completed upgrades to the console capture system and relays, replacement of all of the failing zinc pipes (new pipes constructed in copper, but painted). Many of the remaining bass pipes were fitted with new languids and re-voiced. As well as zinc pipe replacement the following stops were replaced to correct scaling problems: Great 8' Trompete Positiv 8' Festival Trumpet Great IV-V Mixture The remaining reed stops of the organ were removed for cleaning and regulation in 2001 by Parkey Organ Builders. At that time, a significant amount of revoicing and regulation was done to correct problems and complete the tonal finishing from the 1982 installation. The organ is used today extensively for weddings in addition the regular services. -Database Manager
