ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

From: Terry Kleven, November 2008

All of the additions to the Nortown organ will be kept intact with it.

Dr. Bruce Owen Belshaw had added the English Horn, Krumet, and Solo String from the Stanley Theatre in Pittsburgh.

The Harmonic Flute and Horn Diapason are both new ranks.

He also added a second Tibia (10" pressure) and second Vox.

We will be changing out one of his additional chests since he had the main tibia racked on a tuba chest....I couldn't live with this!!

I've seen a LOT of organs in my life but....hands down....this is the nicest one extant. It was new enough when he bought it around 1958 or 59 that he never releathered anything in it. It's still all original inside. He dusted it all off and installed it. Sadly...now...it all needs releathering but, that's what we're here for.
