2021-04-26 - According to the New York City Organ Project website, *"The first organ for Our Lady of Vilnius Church was a second-hand instrument that was installed by M.P. Möller as Opus. 1186. It seems likely that this organ was the 1868 George W. Earle organ originally in the nearby Spring Street Presbyterian Church, where Möller had installed a new two-manual organ (Op. 1116) in 1909. The Earle organ had mechanical action that controlled two 56-note manuals and a pedal of 25 notes. Möller's handwritten (but undated) contract states that Möller would make any necessary repairs and erect the organ in the church for the sum of $600. The specifications with the contract show that the casing was painted cream white. A later specification for this organ was recorded on August 22, 1912, by an employee of Louis F. Mohr & Co., a longtime organ service firm in the area. Mohr indicated that the organ was built by George W. Earle, gave the manual and pedal compasses and listed the number of pipes for each stop in the Swell and Pedal. Handwritten notes state that the organ had a detached console, a blower, and 873 pipes. Mohr's specification differs from that given earlier by Möller: the Swell Violin was at 4' (instead of 8') pitch, and there was a Mixture with 44 keys (88 pipes)."* -Jim Stettner
