Notes

2008-05-28 - Identified from factory documents and publications courtesy of Stephen Schnurr. -Database Manager

2011-04-08 - Updated through on-line information from Kerwin Leader. -- The instrument underwent a complete restoration and cleaning with wind system rebuild in 1985. The specification includes a full length mitered metal 16' Contrabass. The organ speaks from two chamber openings, the smaller into the sanctuary and the larger from the side into the chancel/altar area. The acoustic is rather live with generous plaster wall and ceiling area. -Database Manager
