About
Featuring the historic Barr-Fox pipe organ, used by everyone from Bernard Herrmann to John Williams, Clark Wilson will masterfully put it through its paces. This historic instrument lived on the Newman Scoring Stage at Fox from 1928 to 1997 and can be heard on countless films, including The Sound of Music, Patton, Home Alone, and The Day the Earth Stood Still. Since Nathan restored the organ, it has re-entered the world of contemporary film music and can be heard in scores for The Grinch (2018), The House With a Clock in Its Walls (2018), The Addams Family (2019), Carnival Row (2019), and Uncle Frank (2020).
