DETAILS
This instrument is: Extant and Playable in this location
Is English Horn (Gt) on Positiv actually an English Tuba rather than an-English Horn? Seems likely given the Great and Pedal both have an English Tuba available.
Database Manager on August 2nd, 2017:
The organ was originally built by Casavant in 1970 with 35 ranks. During this rebuild, all of the Casavant pipework was retained, but some ranks were moved around (for example, the Great principal chorus became the Geigen principal chorus on the Swell). New ranks were installed, digital stops were added, and the console was rebuilt. A dedication concert was held in September of 2009 with Paul Jacobs from the Julliard School as the organist.
