I published the photos of the Johannus auditorium and Galanti museum, in response to a user who thought (always in a derogatory way) that a building like Octave Hall could only Allen afford it, and not Johannus or Viscount. And this is clearly not true.

Yes, Allen's official answer tries to correct the game, but clearly many know that it is Harlequin's secret: business is very, very bad, and Allen in America has lost its leadership as an electronic organ company from many years.

Irgendwie bin ich schon geplättet nach dieser Meldung...
Bleibt nur abzuwarten, ob etwas Neues in Richtung Superlative errichtet wird, oder ob kein Neubau erfolgt.
In Deutschland ist es m. W. auch schon lange mit einem größeren Showroom vorbei, als der Standort Rösrath geschlossen wurde...

Viele Grüße
Bernhard

Resting on one's laurels, solipsism, confirmation bias, it happens everywhere..
Like in 19th century physics where Kelvin et al just saw "a few loose ends to tie up" -- and then came quantum mechanics.
Or the classical French organ style, where they thought they had reached the apex of everything and couldn't possibly be improved -- and then Marchand heard Bach play and remembered he had to go back to Paris immediately ;)
But I can sympathise; staying curious is a real effort if you have some good thing going.

Pulcinella, wasn't that D. Scarlatti's cat who was allowed in the music room (which goes to show that Scarlatti must have been a nice person!) and inspired him to compose his cat fugue? 🐈

Arlecchino? Ma non era Pulcinella?

Ce l’hai a morte con Allen, quasi come Delpini con il Papa per la nomina di Cantoni a cardinale! Cosa ti avranno mai fatto?

Ma guarda, non ce l'ho a morte con loro. Sarebbe un sentimento di odio che io non provo per nessuno.

Beh, il dente un po’ avvelenato ce l’hai, dai…

Ma no. Nessun dente avvelenato.
Non mi piacciono i loro prodotti, che considero ingegneristicamente inferiori alle altre aziende, e con una qualita costruttiva non superiore come si vuole far credere.
E venduti a peso d'oro.
Credo che il dente avvelenato lo abbiano piu gli Allen-fan con me, quando mostro tutte le pecche..
Tutto qui.

Lo sai che con i tifosi non si può discutere, sono ciechi e sordi.
