NOTES
The 1957 rebuild by Balcom & Vaughan involved several things. The existing
M.P. Möller had been only 9-ranks of pipes across 3-manuals and pedals. A
new 3-manual console replaced the original, and 12 new ranks of pipes were
added bringing the total number of ranks to 21. The contract cost of this
work was $17,058.80. All 9 of the original ranks were retained, although
their distribution, unification, and borrowing were reduced to some extent
by the additions. Stops marked with an asterisk (*) indicate ranks/stops
that were new in 1957.
