2008-10-20 - Updated through information from Cullie Mowers, posted to PIPORG-L October 20, 2008: -- A "sleeping giant," an opulently-appointed orchestral instrument with many imitative reeds and a full-bodied ensemble which perfectly suits the high-ceilinged and pleasantly resonant room. The organ has not been maintained for several years, and it shows; but much of it plays usably and gives a strong hint of what else there is to hear. The building is now owned by a private individual who is very interested in having the organ repaired and used. -Database Manager
