@pianolasociety The repertoires of all the organs at Thursford haven't been increased since at least the mid to late 1970's. The 87 Key Gavioli in the gallopers only arrived about 10 or so years ago, but I'm not sure if that gets supplied with new books. However the Hooghys apparently received a new book a couple of years back from Marc Hooghys (grandson of Louis Hooghys who originally built the organ around 1908.)
they seem to still play the same tunes on the organs that they did when I first went there 25 years ago...

Thursford is a very entertaining place, it's always ten times better than a brief clip on YouTube. if you can get there it's worth the effort.
