This fully mechanical action organ was designed specifically as a teaching instrument. Although a small instrument it is able to play a wide range of literature.

The Great has, in place of a more traditional 8' Open Diapason, a wide scale Dulciana instead as it is located in a small room. By combining the two 8' stops on the Great a solid foundation is formed to support the upper-work.

The Swell is basically a broken Cornet that can be used against the Cremona on the Great for French classic literature. The Hautboy, when combined with the Swell stops forms a suitable sound for the romantic literature.

The Pedal with its judicious mechanical unification, scaling and voicing is a complete independent division.

The coupling manual further increases the usefulness of the instrument by adding a third level of sound without having to change stops.

The case is red oak with walnut moldings.
