From time to time I am honoured to serve as a substitute organist for Plum Street Temple, the "mother temple" of Reform Judiasm in the United States. Plum Street Temple was built in 1866. Isaac M. Wise, founding Rabbi of the Temple oversaw the building of the fine Koehnken instrument. This instrument was recently restored to its original condition. You can hear this instrument following this link.
