Whitehouse Bros Organ

The two manual, 22 stop Whitehouse Bros Organ was inaugurated on 17 March 1942. Since the construction of the Létourneau organ and the accompanying mobile console, the Whitehouse Bros Organ can be played from the mobile console, which allows for both organs to be played at the same time. Below are the specifications of the Whitehouse Organ:
