Felix Schoenstein was born and trained in Germany, and came to the United States in 1868 to work for Joseph Severin Mayer, pioneer California organbuilder. He started his own firm in 1877. The Great Earthquake and Fire in San Francisco in 1906 destroyed most of his life’s work — Opus 7 built in 1891 for St Markus Lutheran Church in San Francisco is the only survivor.

The organ was relocated to the church of SS. Peter and Paul in San Francisco in the 1940’s, and was replaced with a new Schoenstein Organ in 1986. It is now in storage in New England.

Schoenstein & Co. will donate this organ to any institution that will guarantee its tonally faithful restoration, and will provide a starter grant (minimum $25,000) to assist in its restoration and installation.

This magnificent organ boasts full-throated German Romantic choruses and a rich variety of tone color.
