DETAILS
This instrument is: Extant and Playable in this location
Swell Cornet is actually composed (17-19-22) not 12-15-17 as initially reported.
Database Manager on December 9th, 2017:
Updated by Sean Haley, the builder.
Additional information. The upper central section of the facade were false length tubes of open ended zinc to increase the visual height of the facade. Recent examination of the pipes revealed that the Swell Cornet of string scale is actually pitched at 17-19-22, a continuation of the string scaled stops of 8, 4, 2, to present a complete string chorus. The Swell 8' Diapason is also of a very narrow Viola-like scale.
Database Manager on January 2nd, 2009:
Identified through information from Sean M. Haley: -- Electrified and enlarged by Laws in 1924.
