Installation Update - Montezuma Church of the Brethren
Whitesel Church Organs just started the new organ installation at Montezuma Church of the Brethren - just one month after finalizing their contract! The congregation chose to move forward quickly with the installation because they were so excited to play and hear their brand new two manual Viscount Organ with Physis Technology. The installation began this past Monday, and should be complete for this Sundays service. Whitesel Church Organs had the privilege of installing their previous organ under the direction and guidance of the current owners Grandfather. We are proud and excited to once again be satisfying the music worship needs of many generations to come!

Historic Organ Restoration
The worlds largest pipe organ, located in Atlantic City NJ, has over 33,000 pipes and weighs more than 150 tons. The organ was built between 1929 and 1932. Unfortunately, the organ was damaged by a hurricane in 1944 and since, has not been fully functional. Recently, a movement has begun to try and restore the beautiful instrument to its former glory and functionality.
Disklavier Piano
Whitesel Music and Church Organs just delivered this beautiful Yamaha Disklavier to a happy customer in Staunton, VA. These pianos are superb Yamaha Gands that come with a player system in them for entertainment and education!
