DETAILS
This instrument is: Extant and Playable in this location
Updated by Michael Clabough, who has heard or played the organ.
\r\nTonal design was by Professor Robert Town (Wichita State University). The Positiv division was designed as a contrapuntal foil to the Great and originally included a wonderfully bright and assertive 1 1/3\' Quint and 4-rank Scharffmixtur. Sometime in the early 1990s these two stops were removed (for unknown reasons) and an electronic flute and flute celeste were inserted in their place. The resulting discontinuity in the tonal design is quite glaring to one who remembers the organ as it was before.
