Notes

2008-12-13 - Identified through information in an on-line essay by Dr. Wesley Selby on the Albuquerque AGO web site: -- A new organ in a new building, after a fire destroyed the earlier church building in 1968. Pipes from an earlier Wicks organ survived and were used in this instrument. Some minor tonal changes involving reeds and completion of initially prepared-for stops were completed during the 1970s. -Database Manager
