some months ago one of the members posted a link to an italian newpaper article which was translated to english which reported that the Galanti family was in trouble with the Italian government for improper trade practices. It was reported that government subsidies for employing workers at multiple locations were violated by GEM.
I was in Ancona, Italy back in 2002 as a guest of Generalmusic and I visited at least 3 factory locations. The Albourn-Galanti Organ factory is miles away from the factory/warehouse where the Genesis and audio equipment were manufactured.
The church my family attends has an Albourn-Galanti Organ and I hope service and parts will continue to be available if needed.
