Pipework for the Morgan Memorial Organ, 1942. Worcester Art Museum |
High above the Renaissance Court at the Worcester Art Museum, on top of the lay lights, is the pipework for the Morgan Memorial Organ, donated in 1942. The organ, called Opus 1036, was designed and built by the Aeolian-Skinner Organ Company in Boston, Massachusetts. It was used for concerts at the museum for over 50 years. The organ has been out of commission since the 1990's, but the bellows and pipes are still waiting above to sound off once again.
