- Mark Herman plays the final concert on the 3-manual, 27-rank Wurlitzer/Composite Theatre Pipe Organ located in Emmanuel Faith Community Church (EFCC) in Escondido, CA in June 2020. The organ has since been removed in advance of the remodeling of the sanctuary. Century Pipe Organ from Minneapolis removed the organ and is looking for a suitable home for the instrument.

Each of these organs should be considered National Treasures and be preserved somewhere somehow.
Great young people continue to perform on the mighty wurlitzer ! I grew up listening to George Wright at my Dad's house and got to meet him as I built a Shober Theatre Organ and performed.
My Grandmother was George Wrights musical instructor previous to his fame. She was also his Auntie!
Incredible! Incredibly wonderful. I hope it lives on somewhere else. It's a magnificent instrument played by a Master! Imagine Bach on this organ.
This is a Theatre Organ, although you could play Bach on it, it is much more elaborate than a Church Organ.
I miss TV of the 50s and 60s when they stopped broadcasting late at night. The last thing Chicago stations played was The Star Spangled Banner. At 75 I so miss that patriotism after 2991 days in the Air Force on active duty. Not to mention Kate Smith singing God Bless America.
This is a shame that this great instrument no longer exists. I surely hope it finds a good home.
Fine performance Mr. Herman!
Gee. To think I had a week in Escondido about 1995 and din't know about this. Wish I could play like you Mark, just beautiful. Greetings from New Zealand.
Mark, just found this. Excellent program as always!
Honestly I’ve heard only very few performances as thrilling as this! And I’ve heard some....your style and arrangements are second to none and the unique sound of this organ makes this a really outstanding recording. I for one am so glad you made it! Hello from Oz.
many thanks for sharing your talents and the music 👏👏👏 🙏 🇳🇱
Super excellent with very good interesting video
Such musicality! He brings out the very best of instrument and material in this program.
I love your music
Great performance and great sounding instrument! I hope it finds a good home.
Great music played really well - enjoyed the harmonies of the interesting chord choices - plus great technique - well done from the UK!
Wonderful!
Great playing, and a wonderful instrument! Fantastic Tuba & English (Post) Horn.
Hope it finds a good home.
Excellent. Well-played program. I hope this instrument finds a good home. Too bad it had to be removed from this location. The instrument certainly seemed to be "happy" there.
Wonderful playing!
Somebody please tell me that they're not throwing this organ out on the street! Please store it in a safe place until it has a new home. 🙏
This is just great!! I just subscribed!! Will this church replace this organ with another one?? What happened to the theater organ?? Keep playing!
If this was the final concert for this organ where did it go thank you mark I enjoy your music
BRAVO!!! Many Thanks.
So what is to be the fate of this organ? Is it going to be reinstalled during/after the remodeling?
This is fantastic!
What is going to happen to the Organ? Are they going to reindtall it after the remodel ?
What camera are you using here? The skin tone and lighting are beautiful.
I would much rather not stare at an empty consul or the surroundings while Mark's playing, there's so much to learn from watching him.
Mark is this the organ you recorded the CD with the pastel colored Candy Lolly Pop graphic? The arrangements, the medleys and sounds are strikingly familiar. The strings in Everything's coming up Roses . I love that CD. If it were vinyl it would be worn out.
Anyone know who performed the march "King Football". I'm not sure if it's on the conn 651 or Wurlitzer
Did Ed Stout have something to do with the installation or restoration of that organ?
No, not this one. It was installed by Terry Kleven and Bob Swaney of Century Pipe Organs in Minneapolis. They have this organ in storage now and hope to find another good home for it.
@@markhermanmusic it’s a beautiful organ and you’re playing is excellent. I wish I could improvise like that. Did you know Ed Stout? I visited him once and I think I heard him talk well of you. It was a long time ago
@@Pipe-organ-recordings I know Ed well! I just visited him about a month ago. He’s 89 and still cantankerous as ever. :-)
It's sad to see a church that seems to call itself Christian not preserving a beautiful piece of art in its possession like that, in the name of renovation. Jesus Christ said "Ye are the salt of the earth. If salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again?"
Salt preserves.
Where is it going to is it being sold
Heard Tom Hazelton play...
Great performance..Does the Wurlitzer have any pipe organ stops???
All of the stops are pipe organ stops, Wurlitzer's are pipe organs.
If you meant does it have church organ sounds available, the answer is yes, it has a diapason and flutes at many pitches. One can get a very effective church organ sound by using these without tremulant. (Additional stops can be added to the sound as well, but doing so tastefully requires more thought to avoid sounding reedy or uncharacteristic.)

What's the name of the first tune played?
It’s called “From This Moment On,” by Cole Porter.
Very nice, Mark and a beautiful trio to close with. Was this church a theatre originally?
First tune BBC Radio 2 'The Organist Entertains' theme music.
