Aeolian Hall (London, Ontario)

In 1947, Gordon D. Jeffery purchased the closing Beecher United Church on Dundas St between Waterloo and Colborn and turned it into the Aeolian Hall with an aim to promote local classical and chamber music.

The dedication concert featured Ernest White and Jeffery, and a commissioned work Music for Organ and Strings by Friedrich Breydert.

The longest serving tenant was Frank C. Warder Radio Limited, which occupied the street level portion of the building from 1950 to 1982.

The Gabriel Kney tracker pipe organ was purchased by, and is now installed in, the First United Church of Waterloo Ontario.

[5] Mr. Clark Bryan, concert pianist, bought the Hall in July 2004 and expanded its mandate to include multi-genre music and art presentation as well as community events.
