Notes

2018-08-17 - Updated by Hunter Henderson, who has heard or played the organ.<br>\r\nThis Wicks Organ has a small variety of beautiful voices. Many of the stops are coupled together between the three divisions. The console is on the right side of the room near the back of the room. The pipes are in a case in the back of the room at gallery level. The case can only be accessed with a ladder. -Database Manager
