With the Main Street U.S.A being worked on there are a lot of pieces of equipment that need to be taken care of. One such piece is the Welte Orchestrion that has been playing music for guests on a daily basis.

What’s crazy is that within the inside of the Organ are all the signatures of the cast members that have worked on and refurbished it.

It is a tradition that has been going on since 1945 and will keep on going as cast members Dave Allan, Ken Knibb, Joel Viado, and Jeff Garcia put their signatures within the grand pipe organ.

The Welte Orchestrion is still the same as it was since it was first built with all the same parts and pieces. They are hard at work trying to keep it as original as ever so it can keep on entertaining for 30 years or more.

Guests can look forward to the return of the Welte Orchestrion THIS Spring where it will continue to play the music that has been playing since it first began.
