Notes: According to the September 1959 issue of The Diapason, the principal stops of the Great are functionally mounted on the chancel wall. The enclosed Great and Swell are in spaced opening into the chancel. Somewhat apologetically, the announcement states "the acoustics of the church and the nature of the music indicated the need for a more 'progressive' tonal design.
