Database Manager on September 30th, 2019:
From Dr. James David Mason: Opus 1787 had an Aeolian Duo-Art player, located just inside the left (Swell side) chamber. By the time I was a student at Vanderbilt, the player was still connected electrically to the organ, but the suction blower needed for mechanical operation was disconnected. I suspect that it was disconnected sometime in the late 1950s, when the original Æolian console was replaced by a Reisner console.

The auditorium was gutted in 1975 to become an open 'black box' theatre; the organ was removed at that time and dispersed.
