Updated through online information from Ron Yeater. -- Alterations in 1951 (presumably by Holtkamp): Prestant and Mixture in Sw. moved to Gt., Tierce and Piccolo replaced by pair of small-scaled 8' strings. Starting with a highly original instrument, by 1951 it was almost conventional!!

Database Manager on May 12th, 2012:
Updated through online information from Ron Yeater. -- The 10 2/3 Quint, 8 Rohrflote, 5 1/3 Quint, and 4 Flute d'Amour, on Great and Pedal, are all one rank, Yes, unification in a Holtkamp!!

Database Manager on February 21st, 2012:
Updated through online information from Ron Yeater. -- originally built as an "experimental organ" for use in the factory. Originally a 1-manual with GGG compass, it was redone as a 2-manual with regular 61 note compass before installation in the church; stop list was, of course also altered. Additional tonal alterations done in the 1950s by Holtkamp or another builder organ removed c.2000 and replaced by an electronic. Fate of the Holtkamp unknown.

Database Manager on December 20th, 2008:
Identified through information published in John Ferguson's <i>Walter Holtkamp: American Organ Builder</i> (DMA treatise, Eastman School of Music, 1976). Although neither Votteler-Holtkamp-Sparling nor their successor Holtkamp Organ Co. assigned Opus numbers to their instruments, this organ was identified in factory documents as Job number 1578. That number appears here as the Opus number of this instrument.
