Notes

2022-10-23 - This is an essentially new instrument created from the previous 1967-68 Moller which had been installed with many preparations including the entire Choir division. The twin, mirror-image rear gallery 'cases' and wooden frames with acoustically transparent cloth hiding the pipework and mechanical works. A front, corner tower of 5 pipes is on each side, however the left set were damaged beyond repair and have yet to be replaced. The Nave console's two manuals correspond to Great (I) and Positiv (II); and also to the Gallery Great (I) and Gallery Choir (II) via the combination action. The expression shoes correspond to the Gallery organ. -Jim Stettner
