First Presbyterian Danville IL 1947 Aeolian Skinner

Careful and elegant complete restoration of 1947 Aeolian Skinner pipe organ.

This instrument has been completely restored in three phases. The Swell division was restored completely as a first stage of the project. The middle stage involved the restoration of the console including the dozens of pneumatics in the shell of the console. The Great and Pedal divisions were completed in 2012. This is a carefully restored treasure of an instrument and a completely intact example of G. Donald Harrison’s thinking just after the Second World War.
