Hupalo & Repasky Pipe Organs, LLC, of San Leandro, California, has reconstructed and expanded the John Bergstrom organ for Christ Episcopal Church, Sausalito, California.
The Bergstrom organ was built as a one-manual instrument in 1891 for Christ Church. In 1949, the much larger congregation had the organ rebuilt and enlarged significantly on new electro-pneumatic windchests with a Swell division and additions to the Great and Pedal divisions. After 60 years in this state, it was decided to reconstruct the organ with a new mechanical action, retaining the original pipework, with some new ranks of pipes fitting the style of the original 1891 organ.
The present instrument consists of two manuals, 20 ranks.
