ATLANTIC CITY - Jim Whelan Boardwalk Hall's musical heritage will take center stage 3 p.m. Sunday Oct. 14 with the Historic Organ Restoration Committee's Autumn by the Sea, a double concert featuring both pipe organs in the historic building on the same afternoon.
Local organist and choir director Scott Breiner will command both the Kimball pipe organ in the Adrian Phillips Theater and the mighty Midmer-Losh, the largest pipe organ ever built and the world's largest musical instrument, in the main arena. The concert will feature a variety of selections including classical, hymns, hits from stage and screen and popular music. There will be music for the masses, the exact reason these instruments were placed in the building when it was built.
This program is part of the yearly recital series presented by HORC to increase the community's awareness of the pipe organs of Boardwalk Hall and to raise funds for the restoration to bring them back to full functionality. Autumn by the Sea is being presented in partnership with Thrivent Financial, a 2018 Fortune 500 financial management and advisement company.
Doors open at 1 p.m. for walk-throughs of the largest pipe organ in the world. Tickets are $20 and may be purchased at the Boardwalk Hall Box Office or ticketmaster.com.
