DETAILS
This instrument is: Extant and Not Playable in this location
The interior of the auditorium was radically redesigned in the early 90's. The organ now speaks through the interior shell of the room, which is largely comprised of large wooden dowels. In need of major maintenance (most likely re-leathering), this instrument is currently unplayable.
Database Manager on October 2nd, 2007:
Identified through on-line information from James R. Stettner. -- According to the book "The Harrison Story" by Laurence Elvin, the organ was installed in chambers "on the right of the stage and just in front of it." The organ has a unique feature: the Positive Organ is an independent module that may be played from the main organ, but which also has its own manual and stop controls.
