Historic Organs Of The Barossa Valley Volume 1

The Barossa Valley region in South Australia is well known throughout Australia as an area where some of Australia's best wines are produced. Less well known is the fact that numerous pipe organs may be found here, several of great historic value and musical enchantment.
