In this third lecture “Glen Echo’s Wurlitzer Band Organ: A 50-Year Perspective,” Durward Center, the restorer and caretaker of the organ for the last 50 years, will talk about the history of the organ at the Park, its modifications, restoration and maintenance. A rear view of the organ’s mechanism will be described and shown in operation.
Our Carousel 100th Anniversary lecture series is produced in collaboration with Montgomery History. Each lecture will last from 30-40 minutes, with a Q&A session at the end. The lectures will be presented on Zoom and registration will be required. The recorded lectures will also be available on YouTube.
