Church Organ somewhere or other?

Grand organ, Town Hall, Sydney, between 1928-1932 / Samuel Wood

  • Margaret Donald said:
    What a beautiful photo of the organ! This, of all the town halls I have seen, is the best, the most wonderfully designed. I love its side alleys, its human scale, its beautiful galleries. Is there a better town hall in Australia? Sydney Town Hall is hard to beat. (And then of course, there is the outside, in that lovely warm Hawkesbury sandstone.)

    A great looking and sounding instrument. I thought it was the same as the Powerhouse picture, but the chairs have moved and the console doors are open: www.flickr.com/photos/powerhouse_museum/2362678043/ Hear what it sounds like: www.youtube.com/watch?v=_FXoyr_FyFw
  • State Library of New South Wales said:
    It is a jewel in Sydney's crown and was the largest Town Hall in the Empire when it was built.

    It is still there:

    Women in pubs! At this time this would have been VERY unusual in Irish society.
  • Juffrouw Jo said:
    The closet in the left corner at the back is some sort of musical organ!
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Juffrouw Jo That's what it looks like alright - with a cylinder for playing music?
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    billh35 But was this really a pub? I'm wondering if during the day, it operated also as a waiting room for "facilities of locomotion" as I saw transport described in an 1891 Dublin guide... And they're not unaccompanied either, which was surely the greatest transgression back in the day.

    Oh this is a cracker! They look so formal! I have to head out but I will be back to see what this is.
