DETAILS
This instrument is: Not Extant and Not Playable in this location
The original location is speculated to be another West Coast church, but it was moved to Sacred Heart Parish in Oakland CA in 1936 and was in use until 1989. In this 1936 install, Schoenstein had split the instrument and electrified it.
After the Loma Prieta earthquake, it was in need of repairs and was moved to its current place at St. Paschal Baylon in Oakland when they renovated the sanctuary.
