And there's still some last-minute adjusting of that new organ at St. George's Episcopal Church in Virginia. Not to mention a whole bunch of organs that need tuning, which is part of the story of how the company got started in 1921. The Parsonses aren't worried. They build instruments to last centuries. That's one reason why, except for occasional maintenance, they don't get any repeat organ-building business. But it's also why word of mouth keeps this company generating about $1 million in revenue each year.

But the publicity from the above news article couldn't hurt ;)
