DETAILS
This instrument is: Extant and Playable in this location
Updated through online information from joseph bertolozzi. -- This Oboe–Bassoon, taken from the Hook & Hastings Opus 1935, replaced the Opus 1937 TC Oboe. Because of this the original number of pipes was 824, and now (2010) it has 836 pipes. The only other changes to the organ as built are several coats of paint on the casework, and the addition of an electric blower. Both these changes are reversible, as the finish is intact under the paint, and the hand pump system is still intact and of restorable condition. The manual keys are ivory-covered, pedal keys of walnut and maple. The casework is quarter-sawn white oak, with mahogany stop jambs and key cheeks.
