Database Manager on July 14th, 2014:

Updated through online information from John L. Randolph. -- The organ had to be rearranged to fit the new space. It was completely releathered and refurbished. The expression boxes only had a front and a "C#" side. We added a back and the "C" side. The only major change I made was to miter C1 of the Contrabass to fit the slightly lower ceiling. The console was electrified with Harris components. I added several stops to the original specification but made no tonal changes to any of the original work. The organ project was completed on a shockingly low budget. Some of the work was inelegantly done because of the need to cut corners. To be fair, however, the original Skinner had room for additions that never were completed.
