Notes

2009-02-12 - Identified through online information from Jeff Scofield. -- Originally installed by Möller as their Op. 9423 in 1960 at St. Peter's Episcopal Church, St. Louis (Ladue), MO. Sold to St. John's Episcopal, Johnson City, and installed ca. 2002. -Database Manager

2022-03-15 - Offered for sale, announcement on Facebook March 15, 2022: 3 manual, 28 rank M.P. Moller organ. (Stoplist on OHS has an error. 16’ Quintaton is 73 notes and plays at 16’ and 8’ in Great and Pedal - no independent 8’ flute on Great). We have signed a contract for a new pipe organ. The entire instrument needs to go including casework! Op. 9424 was originally installed in 1960 at a church in St. Louis, Miss. Swell 8’ Trumpet was replaced with new Moller pipework in 1968. Tonal alterations were made by Martin Ott - (Original swell mixture was relocated to Great, recomposed mixture in swell. Great 4’ Octave, 2’ Flute, and II Sesquialtera are not Moller. Choir division is all Moller pipework except for the Krummhorn. In 2001, the organ was relocated and installed in Johnson City by Greg Koziel. Console has Peterson MSP-1000 and Harris drawknobs (added in 2001). Needs releathering. Currently unplayable due to failed leather on swell primary and on several regulators/wind reservoirs. The Great primary was releathered at some point over 20 years ago. The two EP offset chests that hold the 12 notes of 16’ principal (plus a few Quintaton notes) were new to 2001 install. $10,000 or best offer. -Paul R. Marchesano

2023-09-27 - Organ removed from church in June 2022 by George Miller of Buford, GA. New pipe organ installed in 2023 by Patrick J. Murphy & Associates. -Nick Andrews
