DETAILS
Fr. Robert Rien led the initiative to bring this Odell to St Pascal Baylon as part of the renovations of the sanctuary. He explained that the Odell was installed and expanded in 1991 by Schoenstein & Co., and maintenance is now done by Hupalo & Repasky. This includes a 12-pipe Trombone 16 in Pedal, 8' Voix Celeste in Swell, and 4' Principal in the Pedal.
Jim Stettner on October 16th, 2025:
This entry represents the installation of a used organ. Identified through online information from Nicholas J. Yung (October 15, 2025). The organ was previously at Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Oakland, CA. from 1936 until 1989 when it was silenced by the Loma Prieta earthquake on October 17,1989. The original location of the organ before Sacred Heart in Oakland is not known.
