Database Manager on February 4th, 2011:
Identified through online information from Chad Boorsma -- The organ includes some Casavant parts; the pipes, though, were either used from unidentified sources or new from Organ Supply Industries. There are many prepared stops, and the chambers have a great deal of extra room. The organ is in a room with excellent acoustics.
