DETAILS
This instrument is: Not Extant and Not Playable in this location
The organ was been sold in 2023 to a private owner in Palm Bay, Florida.
Database Manager on April 9th, 2020:
Updated through online information from Kyle Walter Sheppard. -- Organ is feeling the effects of age, poor quality metals and an unfinished installation. The organ is functional but in desperate need of restoration. The organ was paid for through state funds for Glassboro State College (now Rowan). Virgil Fox dedicated the organ which was only partially installed at the time. It is at home in the 900 seat Pfleeger Concert Hall.
Database Manager on February 15th, 2015:
Renamed Rowan College in 1992 and Rowan University in 1997; auditorium renovated in 2014.
