A Breath of Fresh Air
Imagine watching a 200-year old organ, broken, tattered, and forgotten coming to life again. Imagine seeing craftsmen and historians working together on a neglected instrument, restoring it to glory piece by piece. Imagine gazing at its transformation into an historically accurate serviceable organ. Now, imagine hearing that instrument played for the first time in generations!
You can make these imaginations come true. Join us as we attempt to create A Breath of Fresh Air for the 1817 Hilbus Cabinet Organ.

The Tracker
OHS publishes its journal four times a year. The Tracker includes news and articles about the organ and its history, organbuilders, exemplary organs, regional surveys of instruments, and the music played on the organ. The emphasis is on American organ topics of the 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries, and there are occasional articles on European topics. Most issues run 48 pages with many illustrations and photographs.

The recipient will receive a subscription to our quarterly magazine, The Tracker, a special gift and all the benefits of membership, including members’ prices on many items in the OHS Catalog.
