Well, my organ didn't come from Worcester, it came from Hessleholm. But the man who made it went to Worcester to work at some reed organ factories there. And I've been there too. Just a month ago.

P.s the reed organ i Cremated near Gothenburg, Sweden.. It would have prefered Cemetery of Staglieno in Genova, Italy.

hey man, my reed organ comes from worchester too!! isn't that great? I suppose cremation would be the best in due time... thanks...

This is the kind of disposable consumer mentality that is destroying culture today. Don't need/want it anymore? Chuck it in the bin!

What a waste.

Reminds me of when I noticed an old reed organ in a pile of wood soon to be burned. Oh... I could save the reed row, the pump pedals and the strings. Too bad not the whole organ. Maybe it finds a new life sometime.

Not funny. You ruined an irreplacable antique. I would die to have a harmonium as beautiful as that. If you didn't want and need it, you should not have taken it- or should have sold it to someone who would treasure it for the gem that it was. Very sad.
