2/10 Wurlitzer - Virginia Theatre
Organ
Location
An original 2/7 Style 185 installation, enlarged by Wurlitzer in 1924 with the addition of a Tibia Clausa. In the 1960s, David Junchen added tremulants and some Wicks relay parts. Buzard Pipe Organ Builders removed the Wicks additions and completely rebuilt the organ in 2011/12, bringing it to a 2/10 Style 216, with the addition of two Wurlitzer ranks, an Orchestral Oboe and English Post Horn.
