NOTES
The organ is installed at the front with much of the pipework exposed to view. The
central section with the cross holds the Swell below and the Choir at the top. The
Great ranks are divided to either side of the Swell enclosure. And the Pedal is
behind the Great, and diatonically divided on both sides of the Swell enclosure.
The Great 8' Trompette en Chamade projects from the top of the stacked Choir/Swell
enclosure. Interestingly, most of the exposed Trumpet-style reed ranks are hooded.
