Notes

2007-11-08 - Identified through online information from Stephen Hall. -- Opus 77 is the main organ in the rear gallery. Manuals 1-3, and the pedal are mechanical key action. Manual 4 controls the Chancel organ (Opus 78) through electric key action. The Trompeta Réal is also on electric key action and may be played from manuals 1 or 2 and from the console of the Chancel organ. Organ is in regular use for services (2007). -Database Manager
