Pilcher Revived in Tennessee:
B. Rule Organ, Op. 8
OHS member and organbuilder Bradley Rule of Knoxville, Tennessee, met the need for an organ in the new building of Tennessee Valley Unitarian Church by using the chassis and a some remaining pipes of the 1891 Pilcher tracker built for First Baptist Church, Griffin, Georgia, which had been relocated in 1926 to the University of the South in Sewannee. After many years of service there, the organ fell into neglect and abuse, and was jettisoned in 1995. Rule salvaged the fine remains, rebuilt and enlarged it for the new and acoustically pleasant space. Theresa Pepin plays a varied program very well, indeed.
