W. W. Kimball Co.
1901

The case was modified, but it did not acquire the side "wings" until the Austin revision in 1915.

The 1900-1901 Kimball work changed the organ to tubular-pneumatic action, and the console was detached, moving to a position near the pulpit, facing the conductor. This was done at the behest of organist John J. McClellan.

This organ was also one of the first pipe organs to be recorded, save for a few cylinder recordings previously, and it was possibly the first recorded on disc in late August/early September 1910. Some of these can be heard at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KwEaKh6n44 & https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aUKcGzGSnk [note: "McClennan" is a misspelling]

Columbia Graphophone Company recording engineer Alexander Hausmann had worked with McClellan and choir director Evan Stephens to achieve the best results possible, as recording technology was entirely mechanical and did not record large ensembles or complex pipe organ tones well. Most "organ" accompaniments were simple harmoniums, and Edison's cylinder attempt ]"Abide with Me", played by Albert Benzler] had a small studio orchestra playing to flesh out the sound!
