Notes: As per D. Keith Morgan: "The Schantz Organ Co. refurbished the Great, Positiv, Bombarde and Pedal divisions, which were badly damaged by falling plaster. Pipework was restored where possible, or replaced by replica partial-compass sets. The project was completed in the Spring of 2010. The work involved no revoicing or alterations, and the organ can still be considered a completely unaltered G. Donald Harrison "signature" organ. The coupler system and combination action was digitalized."
