Woolsey Hall
The Newberry Memorial Organ
IV/197 by E.M. Skinner, Boston, MA, Op. 722 (1928)

Hutchings-Votey Organ Company, Boston, Massachusetts, Op. 1469, 1902 (HV)

Skinner Organ Company, Boston, Massachusetts, Op. 722, 1928 (Sk)
 
 The Woolsey Hall Organ (Newberry Memorial Organ) was built in 1901 by Hutchings, improved mechanically and almost doubled in size in 1915 by Steere, and entirely rebuilt and greatly enlarged in 1928 by the Skinner Organ Company.  Consultants were Harry B. Jepson, university organist, and G. Donald Harrison.  One of the largest most outstanding instruments of this period, it has been kept in excellent playing condition and is utilized throughout the academic year for student organ recitals, organ crawls, gala events and concerts.  It is maintained by the Associate Curators of Organs, Joseph F. Dezeda, and Nicholas Thompson-Allen.
