Notes

2017-09-10 - Originally installed in 1910 as 4/50 Op. 400; new console and Pedal additions in 1966; upon merging with First United Church, the building was sold to the Victoria Conservatory of Music in 1997; the console was disconnected when the chancel was renovated to become a stage. The organ was renovated by Grant Smalley in 2010 and an older Casavant console was rebuilt and updated to serve as the present console. -Database Manager

    *  These stops were handwritten on the spec, but were
       marked OK with initials; so, it is assumed that
       these stops were added to the final specification.
