Notes

2009-07-09 - Identified through online information from James R. Stettner. -- The Schantz is installed in the same divided chambers built in 1942 for the previous W. W. Kimball Co. instrument. Several ranks from that instrument were retained in the Swell, Choir, and Pedal divisions of that organ. In 2001, the organ was augmented by Schudi. -Database Manager
