Notes

2008-12-20 - Identified through information published in John Ferguson's <i>Walter Holtkamp: American Organ Builder</i> (DMA treatise, Eastman School of Music, 1976). Although neither Votteler-Holtkamp-Sparling nor their successor Holtkamp Organ Co. assigned Opus numbers to their instruments, this organ was identified in factory documents as Job number 1612. That number appears here as the Opus number of this instrument. -Database Manager

2009-08-17 - Updated through research conducted by Sand Lawn, courtesy of David Scribner. 5-rank Chancel Continuo added by Schantz as Op.1130 in 1971; now 3/72; replaced by Schantz in 1996 by 3/100 instrument. -Database Manager
