From THE DIAPASON January 1922 via the NYC AGO NYC Organ Project: "Reuben Midmer & Sons, Inc., have completed a large and important work in the complete reconstruction and enlargement of the organ in St. Bartholomew's Episcopal Church in Brooklyn. This instrument now has four manuals. There is a large solo organ, and provision is made for the future installation of an echo of eight stops.

"On a basis of numerous, moderate pressure stops of delicate voicing and of the most churchly character, is imposed a solo organ of high pressure, large scale stops, arranged opposite the main organ in a case duplicating the design. The acoustic difficulties of this relatively large and nonresonant church are well met by this arrangement of the material, which, together with the projected tower organ at the rear, is expected to secure a nearly perfect distribution of the tone in all parts of the church.

"An instrument is now provided adequate for the accompaniment of the large number of musical undertakings of the parish, which in its offerings of service music, oratorio and recitals ranks with the best. The enlargement of the organ was carried out under the personal direction of Bauman Lowe."
