Notes

Database Manager on April 27, 2010:

Updated through information from Vincent Ho and David Zechman: -- The organ was moved here by an unidentified individual or firm from First Church of Christ, Scientist, Berkeley, California when that church got its now Austin organ (Opus 2204) in 1953.  The organ has subsequently been modified.
