2016-03-17 - Updated through online information from James R. Stettner. <br>An online document from the Cathedral Organ Committee ( http://customers.hbci.com/~cathedra/html/organ_update.html ) indicates that none of the companies consulted were willing to transplant the Gress-Miles organ "as is", and were highly disinclined to incorporate the pipework in a new instrument based on the small scales and existing voicing. The Cathedral later chose a new Reuter for the Cathedral.<br><br>Reuter reportedly pledged to incorporate as much of the Gress-Miles as could be artistically done. One possibility was suggested to use the Gress-Miles as the basis for an Antiphonal organ. -Database Manager
