This is a rebuild of an existing organ.
Identified by Richard C Greene, using information from this web site: http://www.moepipeorgan.com/projects.htm.
-- This project consists of the rebuilding of a 3 manual 31 rank Wicks organ. The oldest parts of the instrument date to 1919 with a rebuild and expansion in 1971. The electrical system was replaced as part of that rebuild but in recent years has been giving substantial problems with dead notes and dead stops due to contact failure. The desire was also expressed to have the overall tone of the organ broadened as the 1971 rebuild resulted in a very bright and top heavy sound. The Swell and Choir diapasons will be restored to 8' pitch rather than 4' and the great mixture.
