DETAILS
This instrument is: Not Extant and Not Playable in this location
This entry describes an original installation of a new pipe organ.
Identified by T. Daniel Hancock, using information found in Smith, 2005.
-- This mechanical action instrument was dedicated December 27, 1895. It was the first pipe organ constructed in Los Angeles. It was relocated during the church expansion in 1913 to a new organ chamber. The church replaced it with an electronic substitute in 1949, converting the 1913 chamber into a sacristy. The pipework was purchased by Hunter Meade, and became the beginning basis of his residence pipe organ in Pasadena, which eventually grew to over 110 ranks.
