Updated through online information from Jeff Scofield. -- During the auditorium renovation, the combination action was rebuilt by Austin, and the missing String Organ was returned home and installed in its loft above the stage near the 32' Double Open Diapason. Milnar Organ Co. renovated the organ, including the replacement of missing pipes and converting the switching and combination action to a Peterson system; the percussion stops have been restored. The re-dedicatory concert by Peter Conte was held 7/2/07 with over 3,200 in attendance.
Designed by Edwin Lemare. Console rebuilt by Austin in 1996 retaining original mechanism.
