Notes

2012-03-29 - Updated through online information from Richard C Greene. -- In 2002, the church replaced the organ with a Baldwin electronic organ. The Vogelpohl & Spaeth is now located in a music museum in New Ulm, MN. -Database Manager

2015-08-10 - Updated through online information from Josh Sellner. -- According to the Vogelpohl & Spaeth company ledger in the possession of the Brown County Historical Society, this organ cost $600 when it was installed in 1904. It is not listed as being specifically built for Emanuel in Inver Grove Heights, only an unidentified "Ev. Lutheran Church" in St. Paul, Minnesota. <br> Inver Grove Heights does not appear anywhere in the opus list. We can infer, however, that it is indeed the Emanuel organ, because Inver Grove Heights is located about nine miles southeast of St. Paul, and the organ cost less that $1,000. <br> There are two other organs on the Vogelpohl & Spaeth opus list that were built around the same time period, but they both cost over $1,000, meaning that they were larger organs than the Emanuel instrument. -Database Manager
