Notes

2008-12-24 - 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 1727. That number appears here as the Opus number of this instrument. -Database Manager

2009-01-12 - Updated through online information from John Wiley. -- Actually, it is in a large converted stone carriage house just outside of Colorado Springs, Colorado. The Chapel itself has one window behind the altar only, the Chapel itself was (and may still be) paneled and rendered in all dark black walnut. The Gallery, which is also small, is newer. The organ and wind chest itself is mounted to the rear gallery wall and is totally unenclosed. -Database Manager
