The Empire State Theatre & Musical Instrument Museum is proud to announce the return of Walt Disney's Hollywood Theatre Organist John Ledwon performing on our Mighty Wurlitzer Unit Orchestra. A resident of Las Vegas Nevada, John has been entertaining countless audiences on tour for many years all around the USA. His magic and artistry of the keyboard delight audiences of all ages. John serves as staff organist at the prestigious Walt Disney El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood where he entertains thousands of people a year from all around the world. This program is a must see and perfect to also bring the young musician in your family.

About ESTMIM: The Empire State Theatre & Musical Instrument Museum is located in the Harriet May Mills Art & Home Center on the New York State Fairgrounds. It was established in 1966 as a Nonprofit and Educational Organization, Chartered by the New York State Board of Regents. The Wurlitzer organ was built in 1925 for the former RKO Keith’s Theatre in downtown Syracuse where it was used principally for silent film accompaniment and musical interludes. It was saved and reinstalled permanently in the Empire Theatre at the State Fairgrounds as the centerpiece of the theatre and musical instrument museum.
