Wurlitzer Style SP (2/8) Opus 129 Stop List
2 Manuals - 8 ranks - curved console
This organ was the first Wurlitzer to be exported from mainland North America, and was the first Wurlitzer installed in Australia. It was installed in the Crowle residence in Sydney in 1917, had its Vox Humana rank replaced in 1921, was removed from the Crowle residence in 1929 and installed in the Hearne residence in Geelong in the same year. The middle registers (49 pipes) of the flute rank were replaced in the 1930s (the original pipes still exist and will be returned to their rightful place when the organ is re-installed), a Tibia rank (ex Opus 368, Lyceum Theatre, Duluth, Minnesota) was added in the early 1990s to upgrade it to a 2/9, and so the organ remained, until its removal in late 2001. It is currently being rebuilt, preparatory to its installation in a new home, which is yet to be determined. This organ as delivered, included a duplex Roll Player, which was removed with the organ, in fully working condition.
