50 Years of the Crouse Holtkamp

Built in 1950 at the symbolic crossroads of the 20th century and of the waning style of orchestral organs and the new retrospective influence of the baroque, this landmark organ at Syracuse University’s Crouse College is feted with a CD that celebrates the organ faculty who have known it, and also to herald the organ’s restoration for the 21st century. Surprisingly splendid sound!
