DETAILS
This instrument is: Extant and Playable in this location
Updated through online information from James R. Stettner. -- In 2005, Tacoma organ technician Don Wallin added a 2-manual console located at the front of the church on the right. The Moller is playable from this console so that the choir/musicians can be down front.
Database Manager on January 28th, 2010:
Updated through online information from James R. Stettner. -- The organ was a memorial gift. It is housed in side-by-side chambers in the rear gallery with a quarter-sawn oak case front comprised of three flats and two towers of gold dummy pipes arranged: 5-7-5-7-5 and each section separated by an ornamental wooden lattice grille. The Great and Choir occupy the left chamber, but share no common pipework. The Swell and Pedal occupy the right chamber. The drawknob console is placed centered in front of the facade with the organist facing the casework.
