The Historic Spreckels Organ in Balboa Park, San Diego, California. (Vol. 1 of Dimensions of the United States-Mexican Relations Series).
By Kenneth Herman. San Diego: Spreckels Organ Society, 1993. 24 pages.
A wonderful little pamphlet giving all the details about one of the world’s last outdoor organs, the Spreckels organ in Balboa Park. You will read about the construction of the pavilion, the performers who graced the stage, the lives of the various organists, the technical design of the instrument–everything you might need to impress your out of town relatives next time they visit.
