BRUBACHER, Raymond A.

New and original organ music for the 13 films in Volumes IV, V and VI was composed and performed by musician Raymond A. Brubacher. Born in Washington, DC, Brubacher has been the staff organist at the AFI Theatre in the Kennedy Center since it opened in 1973. He is also the silent film accompanist for the National Gallery of Art, the Mary Pickford Theatre (Library of Congress), the Weinberg Center for the Arts, the Harris Theatre (George Mason University), the Capitol Hill Arts Workshop and Slayton House.

Mr. Brubacher performs on a Wurlitzer Style H with two manuals and 12 ranks (two additional non-Wurlitzer strings were added to the 10 rank H specification) plus a Deagan Vibraharp. Originally installed in Loew’s Colonial Theatre, Reading, Pennsylvania, it has resided in its current Silver Spring, Maryland home for thirty years.
