Scope of Renovations to the McManis Organ

All the pipes above 8' pitch were brought to the shop for repair, cleaning, and regulation of 
their voicing. All the zinc basses were replaced with tin/lead metal pipes. The original McManis 
voicing was respected and restored wherever possible.

The two ranks of reed stops were also replaced with new pipes of lead and tin pipe metal for darker, 
fuller, and more consistent tone. We added a full-length Pedal 16' Trombone, and a full-compass 
Swell 16' Fagotto [Bassoon], which was not originally installed.
