DESCRIPTION:
Another of me playing the beautiful 2 manual 7 rank Wurlitzer organ installed at the Royalty Cinema in Bowness-on-Windermere which was originally built in 1927 for Almira Theatre in Cleveland, Ohio and shipped over to England where it was installed at the Rex Cinema in Stratford, London. It remained there until the 1970s and was then in storage until purchased by the Furness Theatre Organ Project who have installed it here.

Im playing 'Drifting and Dreaming' which I thought was an ideal song for the beautiful Lake District and have included a shot of the scenic Lake Windemere at the start of this video. As you will hear, I am in no way a professional when it comes to playing a cinema organ and am much more used to playing the church organ!

My thanks go to everyone at the Furness Theatre Organ Project for making me so welcome. The organ has been superbly restored and installed so well that it you didnt know otherwise, you would think that the organ had always been here!

I am only an amateur and by no means a pro so wanted to point this out and hope you are still able to get the jist of the amazing skills of the Wurlitzer Organ Company.
