WHAT'S OLD IS NEW AT ST JOHN'S EPISCOPAL CHURCH
For the past several months, the pipe organ in St. John's Episcopal Church in Thibodaux, LA has been away for repairs and maintenance. The instrument was returned to its place in the church while I was away with a new (to us) antique console.
Another view of the console.
The organ pipes in the loft were moved to a more forward position, which makes them stand out nicely.
How lovely it was to have our wonderful old organ back in its place in the church.

Yay!
ReplyDeleteBut do you have an organist to play it? I understand they are getting scarce nowadays.
ReplyDeleteRuss, we are most fortunate in that we have a wonderful organist, La Donna Alexander, who is a member of our congregation. Otherwise, we could not afford her. We pay her, but not enough.
