A ONE-DAY INSTALLATION-Our Toby Washburn and Christian Schoop had a busy day recently when they delivered Wurlitzer Opus 1176 (1925) to the Dawn Theatre, Hillsdale, Michigan. The organ has returned to its original home after an absence of over 70 years! The delivery and principle portions of the installation were completed in one very long day. We will return to complete our work once the theatre completes some infrastructure and line voltage electrical preparations.

OLD SCHOOL WINDLINES-Toby fits up and solders zinc windlines with our own cast flanges exactly as Wurlitzer did it. They look beautiful and are just right for historic organ restoration.

BACK BEFORE THE PUBLIC-Today we dusted off the Chicago Theatre's phenomenal 1921 Wurlitzer pipe organ (Opus 424) to be used in conjunction with the indy-rock group, the Yeah, Yeah, Yeahs, for two sold out performances this week! Madison Square Garden Entertainment, owners of the Chicago, are pleased to present it to audiences who likely have never heard such an instrument.
