The previous building had a 2-manual, 11-rank M.P. Möller, Opus 5171, 1928.
The Holtkamp as originally installed had only Great, Swell and Pedal. The
Choir division was a later addition. The Great, Swell, and most of the Pedal
are on the left side of the chancel. The Choir division and three ranks of
Pedal are on the right side of the chancel.
The top 7 pipes of the Swell 1-1/3' Larigot break back to 2' pitch.
