I have 5 ranks playing in my home. I feel in love with these as a early teen. Now at 73, I thank goodness that I can play. Thank you for what you have done.
Wow! I wonder where it will eventually land... It would require a very large, multilevel building. Congratulations to Carmex, all the builders and tuners and technicians and musicians, and to the very blessed community who gets to hear it! ✨🎹👏
I grew up enjoying the Mighty Wurlitzer @ Paramount Pizza Palace in Indianapolis. I was pleasantly surprised to find Whistle Stop Pizza in Mesa, AZ a few years ago. There is nothing like the sound of this beautiful instrument! Thanks for publishing this wonderful piece of reclaimed history!
You need to take a trip to Organ Stop Pizza in Mesa Arizona to see the Mighty Wurlitzer Organ they have expanded to 80 ranks of pipes and converted the relay system to electronic. At the very least you could find out people to help you with your restoration.
That is so awesome I would love to go to one of the concerts there but I don't live in near there. 😞 So amazing and so worthwhile to continue. A true, true American legacy that carries with it all of our cinema. That is John Williams before there was a John Williams, think of that.
It's not the largest, although a beautiful instrument, the one on the boardwalk in New Jersey has 33,112 pipes, 449 ranks and 7 manuals. So it's 5 times smaller than the largest, I would say.
The largest organ in the world is “Midmer-Losh Pipe Organ” in Boardwalk Hall Auditorium in Atlantic City, New Jersey. The pipes are embedded into the walls of the Auditorium. The organ has 7 manuals, 449 ranks, 337 registers and 33,114 pipes
