Notes

2008-05-12 - Identified through online information from Trevor Dodd. -- This instrument was built as a showcase instrument for Möller. Original Möller remote combination action. Organ has been unaltered since the 1961 additions. -Database Manager

2010-10-10 - Updated through online information from John Deppe. -Database Manager

2013-07-26 - For this expansion, Möller sent a pair of its most expert installers for the work, Guy Lumm and Luther Hetterly. The large facade pipes are from the church's former Felgemaker instrument, though they are not part of Möller tonal scheme. The Choir (below) and Great (above) are on the right side of the chancel, while the Swell is on the west side. -Database Manager
