Database Manager on September 19th, 2016:
Updated through online information from Joel S. Kumro. Updated organ information. The three pedal ranks are extended to six stops. This is an exceptionally beautiful organ, and I'm proud to be the new organist.
Database Manager on July 25th, 2015:
Updated through online information from Francis Koerber. -- This is a wonderful instrument. Presently I am the Choirmaster & Organist for this church. I am very grateful to be able to use this instrument in our liturgies. Bravo, Martin Pasi.
Database Manager on September 13th, 2014:
Updated through online information from T. Daniel Hancock. -- The 1996 manual reeds were French-inspired, but were changed to a German style by Pasi as a part of the reinstallation process in Richmond. The original temperament was Kellner's "Bach" temperament, but the tuning was modified to "Mark Brombaugh Mild" coincident with the relocation. At the same time, the rear case was modified for a free-standing installation in its new home.
Database Manager on March 10th, 2014:
Updated through online information from James R. Stettner.
Database Manager on September 9th, 2013:
