DETAILS
This instrument is: Not Extant and Not Playable in this location
The organ was removed from the Francis Smith residence in the late 1920s by the Schoenstein company, rebuilt with a new console and then shipped to Hawaii for installation in Parke Chapel.
Database Manager on August 3rd, 2013:
This entry describes an original installation of a new pipe organ.
Identified by Jim Lewis, based on personal knowledge of the organ.
-- The organ had an Æolian roll player located on the top of the drawknob console. The pipework was in a freestanding enclosure with dummy front pipes. Both were on an octagonal gallery overlooking the entrance hall. The Swell had a free-reed 8' Trumpet.
