Jeff Scofield on August 13th, 2022:

The rank/register count was correct when it was installed, which is what this listing is for. Any tonal changes would require a new listing under the name of the builder who made the changes.


Database Manager on August 29th, 2012:

Identified through online information from Matt Gerhard. -- I studied from August 2008 through May 2010 on this organ. This really was a fun organ to play, but in need of a bit of work. I studied on it for two years in grad school at California Baptist University in Riverside. Dr. Beverly Howard is the organist.


There are two prepared for divisions in the coupler rail, but with blank tabs. The rank/register count isn't accurate, but I can't remember the exact stoplist. As far as the Great, a four rank Mixture and a Festival Trumpet 8' (mounted horizontally in case) have been added. In the Choir, the Dulciana 16' 8' was replaced by a Lieblich Gedeckt at 16' and 8'. A Gemshorn at 8' and Celeste were added. There were more alterations/additions, but I haven't played the organ in over two years and don't remember them all.
