DETAILS
This instrument is: Not Extant and Not Playable in this location
This is a rebuild of an existing organ. Identified by James R. Stettner, using information from this web site: http://music.vassar.edu/organs/. -- The Vassar College, School of Music (Organs) web page states, "The Fritts organ replaces a 1964 three-manual instrument with 69 stops, about half of which was newly built by the firm Gress-Miles. The other half consisted of revoiced pipework from the original instrument built by Kimball in 1931. This hybrid organ has been acquired by the United States Military Academy at West Point and is installed in the Old Cadet Chapel there."
