FASO - Friends of Aeolian Skinner Opus 1024 FASO presents superb music in a beautiful, world-class acoustical space highlighting, in particular, the Aeolian Skinner 1024 pipe organ. Donald Harrison.

FASO came into being after an Amarillo, Texas, church, St. Andrew's Episcopal, burned to the ground in 1996. When the church began to rebuild, it was able to acquire from the University of Texas an extraordinary organ, one designed and built by the great English organ designer, G. Harrison was employed by the premiere organ building firm of the time, the Aeolian Skinner Company. The Aeolian Skinner Opus 1024 is made of superb prewar materials, and the new church was carefully designed to furnish the best acoustical space for it. After investing over a million dollars in its restoration, the church and the city of Amarillo has an instrument comparable to sister Aeolian Skinners found in the Mormon Tabernacle, Salt Lake City, and in St. John the Divine and St. Thomas, Fifth Avenue, New York City.
