Jeff Scofield on November 9th, 2021:
From the December 1971 issue of THE DIAPASON: Manatee Junior College of Bradenton, Florida, has awarded to the McManis Company, Kansas City, Kansas a contract to build a three·mauual. 45-rank organ for its well·designed. acoustically excellent auditorium. With console on a dolly permitting use anywhere on stage, the encased organ is to occupy an elevated area at stage rear - without "benefit" of usual hanging stage impediments that swallow an organ whole. Classic werkprinzip will be visibly apparent in encased divisions. 16' Principal in the Pedal case facade, 8' in the Great and 4' in the Positiv facade. Console preparations will allow additions of nine ranks. including a mounted trumpet and a 32' Pedal reed at a later date.
