Database Manager on January 05, 2010:

Updated through on-line information from James R. Stettner. -- This was a program of substantial tonal renovation. Three of the six Great stops were new - including the addition of a III Mixture. And the Dulciana was revoiced as an 8' Hohlflute. On the Swell, two of the 5 stops were new - including a Fagott in place of the original Oboe. The 4' Harmonic Flute was altered to become a Wald Flute, and the Great 2' Fifteenth was installed as a 2' Principal.
