Organs of Interest in the Upper Midwest
We now have close to 1800 organs listed in the TCAGO Organ List webpage. To look through the list, click on the link at the bottom of this page. The list is organized alphabetically with Minnesota first, followed by Iowa, North Dakota, South Dakota and Wisconsin.
 
This list started quite a few years ago as a database which meant stoplists and photos were impractical. We wanted to improve the appearance and content, so when it was possible we changed to a website generously hosted by Minnesota Public Radio. When I started the project, we stayed pretty close to the Twin Cities organs. Then wonderful organs started popping up in Duluth, Rochester, Grand Forks, ND, Sioux Falls, SD, and all over Iowa. Being on the east border of Minnesota, many interesting organs were found close to the Twin Cities in Wisconsin. Finally, I had to draw the line somewhere so I limited the list to the five-state area, if one can call that limiting. 
 
Organists in the five-state area have been so generous in contributing stoplists, photos, histories and stories. People have also been generous in proof-reading for us. All I ask from members is that they proof-read the organs they know and send me missing information and photos. I've sent out hundreds of emails to institutions but have received little information in that process. I need the people who use the Organ List to supply information about the instruments they know.
 
I hope you use and enjoy the TCAGO Organ List.
