DETAILS
This instrument is: Extant and Playable in this location
The organ is overall in usable shape, however, it needs attention critically. Because of fear of plaster falling in and on the organ chambers, the reeds on the great and pedal have been shut off. Water damage has led the solo division windchests to be in very poor shape, and only a few stops work. Some dead stops on each division. Overall, the organ needs much attention, but is in usable condition. Voicing is very much if that era of Casavang. It sounds like the parish really hopes to keep it going, and get it back running 100%.
