Rieger Pipe Organ in the Town Hall, Christchurch, New Zealand
The November 2024 newsletter is out. Full of info, news, a giveaway and probably also some bloopers
There is a great deal of new content and fresh material on nzorgan.com. Coming events and news of the Friends Trust will be publicised here. But we also aim to maintain this site with a compilation of its unique and historic photos, events, and everything else that we followed in the 13 years the Rieger organ was active in the Town Hall before the earthquakes and all that is happening since. As these pages were originally a footprint in time, the narrative text about the installation and opening events are just as they were recorded.
