Notes

2011-01-05 - Identified through online information from Chad Boorsma. -- The work done at this time involved relocating the organ to the other end of the chapel as part of an overall renovation project of the room. In addition, the console was given combination action with 12 levels of memory and was placed on a movable platform. The 4' Pedal Schalmei was replaced with a Principal rank that can be played as an 8' stop from the Great and a 4' stop from the Pedal. -Database Manager
