Taos church plans benefit for new pipe organ recital
St James Episcopal Church of Taos hosts a benefit harpsichord recital to fund a rebuilt pipe organ. A broken 1904 organ by Henry Pilcher and Sons will be restored using the 1901 Lyon and Healy chassis from the Byron Texas First Baptist Church. Redman Organ Co. will restore and install the organ in the choir loft with a new case. Tickets are $10. donations support a $70,000 restoration, valued at about $150,000 once complete. Performers Larry Palmer and Lee Lattimore waive fees.
