Delightful link. And the Great Cornet V is full compass. Wow!

So that beautiful Skinner console is just sitting there in the Director's office?  What a waste...

The skinny swell shoes on the 1928 console also were used in the 1948 Riverside console for Virgil Fox.

I'm sorry to see they're getting rid of the Holtkamp. There's nothing at allwrong with it, and it sounds fine.</P>

I was hoping that wasn't the case, getting rid of the Holtkamp, I am very sorry to see that, I am a huge fan of Holtkamp (esp. Walter Sr.), I hope that organ finds a new home, with that console, which is very, very unusual for a Holtkamp.
