  • Is this a digital theater organ?

  • @Magicalapple97  It sure is! This one is 12 years old now.

  • Hi Bob

    My neighbor Glenn loves this song. I have been looking all over the internet to get a copy of the sheet music for organ to give him. Time's running out- he is 93 years old and remembers the song from his youth. Do you know where I can get organ sheet music to the Perfect Song? Please let me know if you can.

  • @peabarnes Also check one of the comments below which has an organ version if you can find the book.

  • This makes the hairs on my neck stand up, magnificently played, brilliantly registered. The organ is number 1 on my wish list. You play with such feeling Bob, its truly brilliant. Keep them coming.

  • @glenny56 Thanks again, Glenny

  • Absolutely beaytiful! I wish I could've heard it as it was played.

  • how much money would this kind of thing cost me?

  • @peabarnes I don't have an organ version, but I do have a piano version (it was used by the conductor to conduct a theatre orchestra back in the 1910s) I use these most of the time when playing on a theatre organ so easily adapted to it. Peace.

  • Hey- would you bring this organ down to Florida? Come 'on!! Sounds great. Love it.

  • The sheet music for a Perfect Song was published a long time ago in a collection of music for the theatre organ sponsored by the American Theatre Organ Society. I think the name of the book was Theatre Organ Greats. It had a photo of RCMH on the cover with about 20 selections. Try E-bay and see if you can find it.
