- Abstract
The article focuses on the restoration of the Henry Kilgen organ which was built in 1884 and housed at St. Augustine's R.C. Church in Austin, Nevada. The fabrication of panels in the style of the original case to cover up the gaps at the sides of the organ is tackled. Information about the pipework repairs, the use of manual-to-pedal coupler and the restoration of the organ consistent with the Organ Historical Society's Guidelines for Conservation are also offered.
