DETAILS
This instrument is: Extant and Playable in this location
The factory specifications indicate that the organ was installed originally with six ranks. The Swell Voix Celeste and Pedal Bourdon were apparently added sometime later. In 2013, Swem Pipe Organ Maintenance added three more ranks to the organ. Those pipes came from the organ in the former First Reformed Church in Kalamazoo, Michigan. The pipe facade is from the church's previous organ.
