NOTES
This organ was a cause for much celebration for Balcom and Vaughan. It was
their first large installation in a Catholic church. The Great and Pedal
are exposed on the rear wall of the rear gallery. The Swell is expressive
in a chamber on the left side of the rear gallery, and the Positiv is
expressive in a chamber on then right side.
The beginning composition for the Great III Fourniture is: 19-22-26. The
beginning composition for the Swell III Mixture is: 22-26-29. The Pedal II
Rausch Quint is 19-22.
In 1980, the organ was tonally altered and enlarged by Balcom and Vaughan.
