In 2017, a new organ built by Patrick J. Murphy & Associates, Inc.,

M. P. Möller, Inc.
Hagerstown, Md. – Opus 6060 (1932)
Electro-pneumatic action
2 manuals, 22 registers, 10 stops, 10 ranks
The Möller Factory Specifications, dated November 20, 1931, show that this two-manual organ had a detached drawknob console finished with birch wood. Möller built the organ chamber and furnished a grille, as there was not a case or front pipes. The organ was voiced on 6" wind pressure. |
