How many ranks? By the looks of the stoprail it seems like around 16 but sounds like more thanks to great registration technique.

28:51 A wonderful way to keep these classic tunes and this magnificent instrument alive!

After this, if you've not seen it you're in for another treat. See if you recognize a prominent cartoon voice. *Harry Warren: America's Foremost Composer (1933)* , Harry attended his tribute by the Lawrence Welk Orchestra on October 7th, 1972 (6 days before my 7th BD) here: *The Lawrence Welk Show 1972 Harry Warren Tribute* [ Harry was in casual wear...no tux! 🙂]

A fine instrument for a truly gifted musician who really "feels" the music he plays . Bless you and yours, Mark ❤

nice organ, nice playing. I love the donkeys. I hope they can hear and enjoy the music. I trust they have a good and loving home. Would love to play this organ, but , alas, im hundreds of miles away. Mostly in the Twilight Zone.

The dry acoustic shows the precision of playing and the subtle dynamic nuances that make me love Mark's playing so much.

Fantastic organist, great music, wonderful organ in an ideal setting what more could anyone ask for. I play this with my vintage Hi-Fi, closed my eyes and it was just like being there.

Mark, you are an oasis of musical sanity in an era when popular/light (give it a name) music has, in most cases, ceased to be music. Thank you, for your taste and for your God-given talent. Thank you - or did I already say that?

What a slushy sweetheart of an organ, and in a wonderful room. Thank you for an excellent performance 🙂

Como se llama el 1er y 2do Tema porfavor necesito saber el titulo de esas dos canciones.

Super job and I ❤it so much thanks Mark.

Another fantastic performance Mark ! Love your videos !

Love to markk on the organ daykly thanks joan erhard

Mark, it was a nice surprise to see and listen to your latest performance; Bravo 👏 It’s also great to see the mighty Wurlitzer theatre organs relocated to cool and unusual places! Thanks!

Put On A Happy Face

Calcutta

Fred Hermes has one in Racine Wisconsin. He plays silent movies and plays the organ.

Beautiful playing as always by Mark ,love the sound of this extremely Mighty Wurlitzer,great by both performers.

Wonderful performance & wonderful instrument

Is This Organ The Salem ma Paramount Organ? a Balaban And Katz 3 17 Ranks😊

Hello from North Texas 🙂 Great to hear your music again! I remember your first 'show' at the 2005 ATOS convention. As the saying goes, you've come a long way - and it's fantastic as ever! 🙂

So beautiful is Marks 🎶! Don’t want to end

Fabulous, Mark! What a fantastic treasure you are to me and all theatre organ lovers out there. This Wurlitzer is incredible too!

Mark, I enjoy your theatre organ performances immensely, not only for your playing, but also for the polished presentation. Now to discover this aspect of your skill, not only your technical ability but your innate musicianship, displayed on your superb Mason & Hamelyn, is well, a new bowl of delights (but not Turkish). So many younger people dismiss the eras that not only produced the great music you play, but also fail to see that Musicianship has almost disappeared. OK, I enjoy producing music with modern technology, with AI etc, but non of this musical world can even start to match ability such as yours. To listen to this concert is an unparalleled treasure, yet another reminder from you just what real light music is (I can get this only from my Reproducing piano, but the repertoire of light music from that past period was small). Thank you Mark

Great Program Mark. We just moved the consoles back to BCT so maybe we'll have a play able instrument shortly.

Thank you so much Mark (from France, brittany). How can you block this high E b at 5:16 a while you're playing something else with your two hands?

Encore!!!!!

Another great concert Mark! Loved the Cole Porter segment. I am wondering if in the near future, you would mind playing “Our Love Affair” from the 1957 Academy Award nominated “An Affair To Remember”. It was played throughout the movie, usually using an organ as the primary instrument. I would love to hear you play it in one of these magnificent theatre organs. Well done!

Ain’t no Senate Theater, but nice.

"Lover Come Back To Me" was especially FANTASTIC!!! I love Simon's arrangement, but you may have topped it, Mark! Fabulous!!! This piece is a sentimental torch song for many of us, and you tugged at all of the heartstrings with that arrangement.

At 11:40, Mark says this instrument is "lightning fast" with its original pneumatic relays. Why would these be faster than modern solid-state-relays?

Bravo Mark, and I loved hearing "Calcutta" at the start of the video.

The horses look at Mark and think.... Who is this city slicker! ;)

Is this instrument seriously on its original EP relays? If so, then that is awesome. Wish more Wurlitzers retained their original relays.

Wonderful concert Mark! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍

Jerry Gould and Greg Smith did a fantastic job rescuing the Greenwood Pizza & Pipes organ and reinstalling & expanding it in Jerry's barn. I never heard the 32' rank that was removed from the barn, but I understand that Mark Herman acquired that gem rank.

Mark's usual super talented excellence in performance and fantastic choice of songs! It's always so good to hear an organist who is clearly putting emphasis on the music rather than technique, even while being superior in the latter department.

Great playing Mark and a great sounding instrument as well.

I got the impression from part of your talk about the organ that this organ still operates on original relay equipment, correct? From the PSTOS entry about this installation I read: "There is nothing electronic about it, no solid-state, digitized anything. This is completely acoustic!" Is it indeed an original relay it utilizes? Excellent recording. Thank you for sharing it.

Terrific!

Another great concert, Mark! Thank you so much! This was the organ that started my love for theatre organs. It was installed at the Pizza & Pipes in Seattle where my family would often go to enjoy the pizza and music

11AM

FANTASTIC... as always Mark.

First tune BBC Radio 2 'The Organist Entertains' theme music.

Hopefully someday it can find a much larger place - the building it what's holding the sound back. Nice instrument :)

Old piano player here. You re a delight. So lyrical. Tempi stunning. Love it all. Listened 30+ times. Bravo !

A wonderful pianist with a lovely touch.

One word says it all. SPECTACULAR

*A* *M*I*L*L*I*O*N* *S*T*A*R*S* all my flavorites! I love the dry sound without a hint of basement wall bounce. That is special Mark, and so well played.

Sweeeeet playing Mark! You've got the passion. Excellent recording! Those pipes singing through room adds years to ones life. Just pure bliss. SAVE THE ORGANS 🙂 I find TPO music sounds best through Magnepan Magneplanar speakers. They are a large surface area and low pressure. It's as if it's coming through the shutters. And low pressure also means low ear fatigue, as well as the sound stays more confined to the room. If you go to another room you don't hear it as loud, if at all.
