from email correspondence with Ann Laver, 22 April 2026:
"I see you have the organ listed as a Parsons instrument, formerly Harrold. I think it is better to describe it as Greg Harrold Organ, Opus 14. Parsons did indeed pack up the organ and reinstall it, but they didn't alter anything. Also, Greg was involved with the move and installation. It really should be listed as his instrument."
[Ed. 2026-04-23: as the original organ builder was involved with the reinstallation, we have listed the organ as by him, acknowledging that Parsons Organ Builders were involved as well.]

Parsons packed, moved and installed the organ here. Nothing on the company's website, but two Facebook posts provide background:
Jan 15:
The main crew finished up the installation of the Greg Harrold Opus 14 at Syracuse University this week. The instrument looks beautiful in its new home!
Aaron, Greg Harrold, and Manuel Rosales are staying to install all the pipes and make tonal adjustments to better match the organ to its new acoustical space. There are many people eager to hear the final result!
Jan 11:
This past week we had a crew in Syracuse, installing this beauty in the St. Thomas Moore Chapel at the Catholic Center, Syracuse University!
This mechanical action organ was built by Greg Harrold in 1995 for the former Kay/MacBird residence in Los Angeles. A few years ago the organ was purchased by Syracuse University, and Parsons was contracted to remove the organ and install it in the new chapel.
Most of the structure and casework was completed by Saturday. A crew will be back on site this coming week to focus on the detailed work of installing/adjusting all the tracker action, put pipes in, and do tonal adjustments as the organ is now in a new space!
