There will be a demonstration of the organ by Bob Salisbury and there may be an opportunity to see the main chamber. After the meeting, there will be an open house at the site of the IETOS Style 150 Wurlitzer installation. While the 150 is still being installed, the solo manual should be playable for those who would like to try playing a real Wurlitzer. |

Console of the Style 216 Wurlitzer at San Bernardino's California Theatre
The Inland Empire Theatre Organ Society (IETOS) is dedicated to the preservation and promotion of theatre pipe organs. Unlike their stuffy cousins, theatre organs are born entertainers. They were the voice of the silent films and leaders of the community sing along. While most theatre organs are now 80 years old or more, many continue to merrily belt out tunes to delight modern audiences. Write to us at

 Steuart Goodwin installs wall support for tibia pipes Good progress was made on the Hegybeli Style 150 Wurlitzer starting with the installation of the pedal offset chests and pipes. These large pipes, some of which are over 8 feet long, provide the low bass notes that form the musical foundation. |
