Notes

Database Manager on January 01, 2008:

Updated through online information from Linwood E. Bratcher, Jr..  -- Beautiful instrument, Last instrument Charles Fisk worked on. He died before it was installed in the building. Instrument located in Pre-Civil War Sanctuary with wonderful acoustics.  Sits in back gallery in the center of the barreled ceiling.  Speaks directly into the room.
