This instrument is: Not Extant and Not Playable in this location
Organ removed and replaced by Casavant op. 3617 in 1986
Drew Childs on December 10th, 2023:
The revised Holloway/Casavant from Tabernacle Presbyterian was obtained by Faith Lutheran Church in Fort Wayne, IN in the early 1980s. The only cost for Faith Church was to remove the instrument from Tabernacle Pres. Because the entire instrument was too large for the sanctuary at Faith and some parts were unusable, some components of the organ were sold off to other places, and others were dumped.
Info from Making Joyful Noises, A History of the Pipe Organs of Fort Wayne and Allen County, Indiana, published in 2001 by Patricia Sagester Arthur for the 2001 AGO Regional Convention held in Fort Wayne.
Drew Childs on December 29th, 2022:
According to an add placed in the October 1964 issue of The Diapason, the renovations to the original Casavant organ were completed by Holloway under the leadership of Ernest White.
