NOTE: The gallery organ will be playable from the sanctuary
console via General pistons once that organ has been rebuilt
sometime in the future. There are tilting tablet couplers for
each of the gallery organ divisions, allowing them to be coupled
as desired to the sanctuary console's two manuals at 16', 8',
and 4'.
