Notes

2013-05-27 - New console for existing organ. Identified by Martin Saganski, based on personal knowledge of the organ. -- I just played this organ on May 26, 2013. I have "heard" (but can't prove) pipes might be Aeolian-Skinner, but plate on console indicates "Console by Cassavant Freres, 1965" -Database Manager

2017-02-04 - Updated by Martin Saganski, who has heard or played the organ. <br> -Database Manager
