Tommy Holtmeier on October 13th, 2024:

I visited this chapel on 10/9/24, and this organ has been in an unplayable condition for a while. It is still there, but it is not playable.


Database Manager on February 21st, 2015:

Updated through online information from Don Hurd. -- A magnificent, large chapel! I last played the organ in the 1980's--worked perfectly! Now they use a very small electronic and a grand piano.


Database Manager on September 20th, 2006:

Immaculate Conception Chapel at the Convent Motherhouse is listed for a 1901 Austin, Op. 51, 2-16. The related college moved in 1962, and their chapel, Mater Dei, is listed for a 1963 Steiner organ, Op. 3. Did it use pipework from Op. 50 for North Ave. Pres.?


Database Manager on October 30th, 2004:

Status Note: There 1998


Database Manager on October 30th, 2004:

If Op. is correct, from North Ave. Pres., Atlanta, GA, with new Austin console in 1939. Replace there by Wicks in 1961. [ed.: photo shows original console/keydesk attached]
