2025-03-10 - This entry represents the addition and/or substitution of selected, used pipework from Christ Church Cathedral in Victoria. The .pdf Organ History document on the church website states, "To attain the other objectives of the long term plan, problematic pipes and ranks have been identified. The search for suitable replacement pipes coincided with the deconstruction of the Christ Church Cathedral Organ to make way for a replacement. Both of the organs contained many pipes that predated their current homes and were therefore designed for installation in smaller buildings. Giving consideration to the historical value of our existing pipework and the overall tonal qualities of the organ, suitable pipes, often of a larger diameter than our original pipes, were identified and purchased from the Cathedral on favourable terms. Our surplus smaller diameter pipes were then offered to the Anglican Parish of Saltspring, who had also recently embarked on an organ building project." "Mr. Grant Smalley began installation of the Cathedral pipes and associated rebuilding in 2002. Enough pipes were installed at St. Andrew’s for a recital to be held in Sept. 2002 to celebrate the new life that the reuse of old pipes from the Cathedral gave to organs in the Victoria area in St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church, the Anglican Parish of Saltspring, Shawnigan Lake School Chapel, and Centennial United Church. The recital by Dr. Gerald Wheeler, arranged by the Anglican Parish of Saltspring, provided an opportunity for recipients of pipes to publicly acknowledge Christ Church Cathedral’s generosity, and the proceeds were donated to Saltspring Parish." "The completion of this last rebuild was celebrated with an inaugural recital by Mervyn Games in Sept., 2005." -Jim Stettner
2025-03-10 - The .pdf Organ History document on the church website states, "In 2009 the Swell Trumpet 8’ was replaced by a Trumpet from Casavant by G Smalley. He also rearranged some of the pipes from Swell to Great." -Jim Stettner
