Notes

2008-12-05 - Identified from factory documents and publications courtesy of Stephen Schnurr. -Database Manager

2009-04-20 - Updated through on-line information from Jeff Scofield. -- The Solo division was retained from the previous organ, with the chests releathered and the pipes tuned and regulated. -Database Manager

2010-10-10 - Updated through on-line information from Philip Fillion. -Database Manager

2010-10-19 - Updated through on-line information from Philip Fillion. -- Was there today practicing. At some point in the past, organ was increased to 36 ranks, but I didn't notice any difference from the stoplist given. Perhaps some unified stops were given their own pipes. -Database Manager

2010-12-19 - Updated through on-line information from Philip Fillion. -- Peterson ICS-4000 system installed, 2002, by Heritage Pipe Organs. -Database Manager

2012-08-30 - Updated through online information from Charles N. Clutz. -- I am an organist and architect. My mother was chairman of the organ committee when the Moller organ was installed and I have crawled through the former organ (Buhl Organ Co.) including the Solo organ (over the balcony) There are 73 pipes in the Solo division (two chests C and C#) The Fernflote was never an extension nor was the Clarion. Each has 73 pipes. The Swell Contre Trompette has 12 pipes and was not a tc. Unless this organ has been re-wired during the 1980s, this is the way it was the last time I played it at my parents 45th wedding anniversary celebrated during a regular service. I designed pipe organs for Aeolian-Skinner from 1964 through 1968 under John Tyrrell and Joe Whiteford. -Database Manager
