[rodgersorgan] Re: A tale of two organs

As I started to say before, we could simply abridge the comment to: we'd 
love it if they consulted the organist.
With my old church, it was the pastor who recognized the potential of 
installing another much larger instrument than what they had. (Apparently he 
bought the hogwash that I sold him!) Actually, though, it wasn't hogwash at 
all and now that the organ is in the church, they are getting it finally 
installed and it will sound great. But I do remember working with the music 
committee and the finance committee and, yes, we did have some ladies who 
were all for it and we had two gents that were totally against it and it 
didn't matter what the new instrument was going to do for the church.

Well, today, they have a new organist as i am not there anymore. I play for 
a U.C.C. church once again and they have an older Allen organ. When it comes 
time to replace it, they will be looking at a new Rodgers because THAT's the 
direction I'M going to take them in.(whether they want my help or not!)
