Description

This is a small Episcopal chapel about 10 minutes from my home. There is no electricity, so I have to roll the piano to the doorway for some added light.
The chapel is used about 5 times each summer for regular Sunday morning church services. The piano, appropriately named, is used for hymns, so it doesn't see much use at all.
Pitch is at A-440, and I don't really have to "tune" it, as it stays in tune really well.
The chapel also contains a tiny Mason & Hamlin reed organ. The keys remind me of a toy piano. Although never used, it still works and sounds quite good, considering its size.

Hi Eric,
My mom went to a small all girls Episcopal school in Reistertown, Md in the late 1960's. There was and still is a small chapel almost identical to this one. It is now on the Historic register. She too played the organ there for evening prayer services !!
