Notes

2011-06-18 - The organ was originally built in 1970 for First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Bismarck, North Dakota. It was moved to Florida in 1998, where it was used in both church and residential settings. The work on the organ at this time included new stop controls, pistons, wiring, solid state components, and mechanical upgrades. Space has been reserved for future additions. -Database Manager
