Down goes the organ!

The Wurlitzer organ was installed in the Victoria Hall in 2009 in the traditional manner, in which the organist rises up through the stage playing the instrument at the start of the recital, and descends during the last piece to rapturous applause. On this occasion the recital of popular music covered everything from Abba's Waterloo to the Teddy Bears' Picnic. Image
