ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

From: Greg Alabaster, February 2010

I bought Opus 202 (a 2/4 Wurlitzer originally installed in the Melbourne Majestic Theatre) about six years ago.

The organ was supplied with a piano type console which was removed in the early 1930's. I swapped a Wurlitzer pressure Piano (ex Uptown Theatre Chicago) for Opus 1748 (Michael Woolf's organ) original piano type console about a year ago.

I also acquired a Wurlitzer style D Trumpet which with the piano type console will complete the Opus 202 original specification.

I will probably add a Wurlitzer Tibia and a Diapason to bring it up to a Style D specification. The Opus 1748 console had six ranks and these additions will make it much more interesting and enjoyable to play.

With luck, I'll celeste the Salicional and add a Saxophone and the Kinura may ultimately become a Krumet.
