Notes

2023-05-15 - The organ is very mild. The Great and Swell are enclosed in separate swell boxes, and the console is actually on the floor at the end of the chancel platform around the corner from the choir loft. Judging balances between the organ and choir or instruments from this position is difficult, to say the least! -Daniel Wicks
