Notes

2024-02-28 - This entry represents the moving of the existing 1901 Casavant (Op. 138) to the new edifice with tonal expansion. In 1939, the organ was again rebuilt and enlarged by the original builder. -Jim Stettner

2024-02-28 - Updated through online information from Andrew Henderson on January 26th, 2024: From *The Ottawa Journal* (December 7, 1912): "The church had in its former building a very fine Casavant organ and in rebuilding it, the opportunity was taken of enlarging it to double its former capacity. This work has been practically completed by Mr. A. E. Breckels and is a very fine great embellishment to the interior of the building and will add very greatly to the musical portion of the services of the church." -Jim Stettner
