Warren Church Organ Co.
1912

The organ was rebuilt as a 2-manual instrument by Hill, Norman & Beard circa 1960.

From The Leader-Times (April 15, 1912): "The new organ in the First Baptist Church, Regina, is not as large as the great instrument in Sydney, N.S.W., nor is it as pretentious as many others in different parts of Canada, but it is a very fine specimen of the church organ builder's art, just the same, and reflects great credit on the Warren Company, of Woodstock, Ont. This firm have already built some 66 large organs throughout Canada, also the great $26,000 instrument at Chatauqua, N.P., and are now engaged on a $10,000 one for the Mount Pleasant Methodist Church, Vancouver. Last night was the formal opening of the new instrument for regular Sunday services, Dr. Hodgson, director of music at the Methodist College, officiating, and giving a short but very interesting recital at the close of the service ... The organist experimented with some of the most beautiful stops, including the vox humana. There are many vox humanas, but the Warren Company, by a special invention of their own, have been very successful in producing an extremely fine effect ... This new organ, as I said before, was built by Warren and Company, of Woodstock, Ont. It cost in the neighborhood of $5,000. It is of tubular pneumatic action throughout, there having been over two miles of tubing used in its construction. It has a detached console with roll top; communal wind chests, having a separate valve for each pipe; a radiating and concave pedal board, anddd the wind is supplied by an electric motor pump. Almost the finishing touches were put on the instrument on Saturday, the workmen being busily engaged up to midnight making the big dispenser of sweet sounds ready for Sunday's opening. Mr. Tilley, one of the builders and tuners of the company, has been in charge under the general supervision of Mr. E. W. Walbourn, assistant manager, and both are delighted with the results of last night's recital. Taking advantage of that gentleman's presence in the city, Mr. Tilley will before he leaves tune the organ at the Metropolitan Methodist Church."
