Free Noontime Organ Concert Series 2024-2025
Proctors GE Theater –
One hour of a variety of music genre played on a large Allen Digital Theatre Organ.  The digital sound samples that are reproduced by this instrument are originally derived from the Hollywood Philharmonic Wurlitzer theatre pipe organ.  Presently Goldie is under repair and unavailable for many months.
The mission of the national American Theatre Organ Society is the preservation and public presentation of the remaining examples of the theatre pipe organ.  Once plentiful in the early 20th century during the era of silent films many are gone today along with the beautiful large movie palaces that housed them.  Our chapter (The Hudson-Mohawk Theatre Organ Society) is specifically dedicated to the technical support and public presentation of the Proctors Theatre instrument known as Goldie, a Wurlitzer theatre pipe organ.
