Testimonial

In fall of 2009 our firm was contacted by the Hon. Jack Layton who became leader of the official opposition in the Canadian House of Commons in the 2011 federal election. Mr Layton died after a valiant fight with cancer August 22, 2011 The Layton family was involved in the piano and organ business in distribution, manufacturer of pianos and pump or reed organs in the 1800's in Montreal Quebec. The Layton family organ was manufactured by the Thomas Organ Company in Woodstock Ontario and sold by the Layton Brothers Piano and Organ Showrooms in Montreal. The Layton family organ was called "The Symphony". This model was a large single manual reed organ with large suction bellows, 412 reeds, qualifying tubes or pipes to produce 19 stops. The organ featured in addition to pump treadles a side lever for pumping by an assistant. The organ was designed for larger chapel and smaller church settings. The organ with the pipe top weighs over 600 Ibs. The organ is similar in construction to its bigger brother the tracker action pipe organ.
