Notes
The organ
originally
had a luminous, "cash register" console,
which was
replaced without tonal changes by Genn White of
Olympic Organ Builders of Seattle.
In 1976, tonal additions were made to the organ. This mostly included
de-unifying the flutes.
An 8' Trumpet was installed in the Choir in place of the original 8'
Clarinet as a memorial. In the Pedal,
the Swell 16' Lieblich Gedeckt was borrowed and the Echo 8'
Gedackt was extended to 16' and borrowed
to the Pedal as a 16' Echo Bass.
The Great and Choir
were separated into their own chambers, the former Echo expression shoe
used to control the extra set of shutters. This required that the Echo
expression be controlled by another shoe - and the Great shoe was
chosen for this.
