Note: Not extant. Not playable. (in this location)
2022-05-04 - I had the opportunity to see it circa 2000. Then some of the pipework was said to be missing; blower either removed or inoperable (I forget which). No plans to restore organ. Two manual plus pedal, two elevated chambers forward (audience side) of the proscenium (one on each side). E-P. Stop tongues over Swell manual. Stop list taken from the console (no longer attached to wire bundle): GREAT Open Diapason 8' Salicional 8' Gross Flute 8' Clarinet 8' Swell to Great 8' Swell to Great 4' Swell to Great 16' Great to Great 4' Great to Great 16' Great Unison Off --- (thus in my notes; ? blank tab) Chimes SWELL Concert Flute 8' Vox Celeste 8' Viol d'Orchestre 8' Harmonic Flute 4' Piccolo Harmonic 2' Vox Humana 8' Orchestral Oboe 8' Swell to Swell 4' Swell to Swell 16' Swell Unison Off PEDAL Open Diapason 16' Bourdon 16' Bass Flute 8' Great to Pedal 8' Swell to Pedal 8' So probably nine to twelve ranks, depending on how independent the Swell flutes were (assuming Pedal 16's were extensions and Pedal 8' borrowed); maybe 13 ranks. Tremulant for each manual; two expression pedals; crescendo pedal; crescendo indicator; one mechanically latching toe stud, function not indicated (?tutti). Three Swell/Pedal thumb pistons; three Great/Pedal thumb pistons. Entirely mechanical, and unusual: each piston rotated a wooden dowel near the appropriate stop tabs. Holes were drilled in the dowels into which one could insert something akin to cotter pins to determine whether it would turn on, turn off, or leave alone the corresponding stop tabs. So the combination action was settable, though one probably needed a pair of needle nose pliers to do so. . . . -Michael R Price
