Few pipe organs in history have received as much attention as the iconic Fratelli Ruffatti instrument dedicated in May, 1982.
This 178-page full color book tells the story leading up to the recent restoration following the Dioceses of Orange's acquisition.
The content, by David Crean, describes the organ's history and the cathedral's music programming, highlighted by historical photographs, interviews with key players, and complete organ specifications, plus a list of all concert programs and performers from 1982-1998.

Hazel Wright organ book
Book only documents 16000 pipes since restoration,. This figure is over 1000 short of what the other literature claims. Suggest next edit will fix the pipe count to over 17000.. Otherwise a great book overall.

Looking for this book for a long time
It was wonderful to get this book. I was able to have Dr. David Crean autograph my copy.

Fantastic Book on a Musical Icon
Once the book arrived and I started reading it - I could not put it down. Meticulously researched and written - the book gives a all the details of how Hazel - as she is known - came to be - flourished - declined - and was resurrected with a $3MM renovation. Lots of great photos also included in the book. A MUST HAVE for any "Hazel Fan".
