Database Manager on July 8th, 2011:
Updated through on-line information from David M Storey. -- The stops listed in the stop list as "old" are from Archer Gibson's Aeolian organ. The Casavant organ is currently undergoing cleaning and rebuilding by Casavant assisted by David M. Storey, Inc. No tonal changes are anticipated. The Aeolian Harp is to be retained and retored. Each rank of the Swell Mixture sits on a separate stop action. There are no breaks. Each rank will be controllable individually in the rebuild so mutations will be available in the Swell. The console will be moved to the center of the gallery, out from underneath the casework.
