Updated through online information from Carl Scott Zimmerman, Campanologist.
Database Manager on November 3rd, 2014:
This organ combines chests, reservoirs, tremolos and pipes from E.M. Skinner opus 574 & opus 682, with additional new stops in EMS style.
The Celestial division is located above the crossing, speaking down into the lantern.
Database Manager on November 3rd, 2014:
The Deagan Tower Chimes are installed in the Celestial chamber. They were originally at the First Baptist Church of Kingsport, Tenn. The original set was 18 notes. There is only room for 14, so it was reduced to a standard Deagan 14 note set.
