Murder, mayhem, neglect, abuse. Also redemption, rebirth, forgiveness, and, over it all, magnificent music. Who could believe that this could be the story of a pipe organ? Its history is the history of a small town. Its cast of characters includes businessmen, politicians, soldiers, bureaucrats, teachers, preachers and musicians. If you love music or history, this is a must-read for you! Thaddeus B. Reynolds is a professional pipe organ builder and restorer whose career began with the renovation of the Barley Memorial Organ in Marion Indiana's Memorial Coliseum. Working with his son and business partner, David, he has built or restored dozens of pipe organs in Indiana and Kentucky. He lives in a century-old Italianate home in downtown Marion with his wife, Tina, and too many cats. He spends his limited free time with his family, especially his grandson, Jonathan, who lives just a few doors away.
