Updated through information adapted from E. M. Skinner/Aeolian-Skinner Opus List, by Sand Lawn and Allen Kinzey (Organ Historical Society, 1997), and included here through the kind permission of Sand Lawn: "Console and Antiphonal built under #1458-A; twenty-eight ranks of church's original 1910 Murray Harris pipework used; Pedal reed unit added in 1967, #1458-B; extant; unaltered; restoration work by Douglas Harrison Cable."
Database Manager on September 20th, 2005:
Identified through online information from Peter Bates. -- The organ incorporates 28 ranks revoiced or repitched from the former First Presbyterian Church's 1910 Murray Harris organ. The organ was restored/releatherd in 1994 by D. H. Cable under the supervision of Manuel Rosales. The console was rebuilt and modernized in 1998 by Robert Turner. The relay and combination action were replaced by SSL equipment in 1998. A new Festival Trumpet by Schopps was added in 2000.
