BERLIN — On Saturday, Oct. 5, members of the N.H. Chapter of the American Guild of Organists will travel to hear two outstanding pipe organs in Berlin.

The two events will be open to the public, free of charge, with donations accepted at St. Anne's for the much needed organ restoration. The first will begin at 11 a.m. at the 1907 St. Anne organ built by the Canadian firm, Casavant, an early example of the use of electricity in a pipe organ.
