DETAILS
This instrument is: Extant and Playable in this location
This organ retains the Vox Humana stop from the Möller organ of 1924 that was previously installed in FCC Westfield.
William Rehwinkel on October 23rd, 2021:
1970 date is incorrect. Previous organ was still installed as late as early 1972. Photo is likely taken just before dedication recital in 1972.
