Database Manager on February 17th, 2016:
Originally built in 1985 by M.P. Möller for St. James' Church (Episcopal) on Madison Avenue in Manhattan. In 2005, the organ became available and it was purchased by First Baptist Church. Meloni & Farrier moved and rebuilt the organ, installing all but six Pedal stops due to space restrictions in its new location. The three-manual drawknob console, which originally also controlled a 34-register Antiphonal organ at St. James' Church, was not modified to reflect its current configuration.
