Notes

2021-09-20 - The church purchased and installed a Rodgers Classic digital two manual console with lighted stop action and 4 external audio channels (2 in the chamber and 2 mounted to the ceiling in the front of the church). The entirety of the pipework of the Balcom & Vaughan was retained on it's original chests in "as is" condition and interfaced with the digital voices. In the years following the installation only the Open Diapason playing at two pitches (as the Swell 8' Geigen Principal and 4' Prestant) have remained actively in use, the rest being entirely digital voices. According to the organist, Edie Martin, the Rodgers installers couldn't get the all the pipes to work properly. According to organ supporter and former member of the church, Don Crawley, all pipes were playable from the Rodgers when first installed. -Sean Haley
