The 2026 season of the Detroit Theater Organ Society’s Organ Pops Concert series moves right along into Fall with yet another concert, bringing you some truly marvelous organ music at the historical Senate Theater! For over sixty years DTOS has brought in some of the nation's and world's finest organists to harness the power of our Mighty Wurlitzer theater organ. This year, in the Senate's 100th year, we are happy to continue that tradition here in Southwest Detroit! 

For this installment, we welcome the indomitable Scott Smith back to the Senate Theater! Don’t miss your chance to experience the majesty, nuance and diversity of sounds that only a theater pipe organ can provide.   

About the Artist:  

Scott Smith has performed concerts and accompanied silent films across the country, but first performed regularly at the Michigan Theatre in Lansing as its last staff organist, from 1972 to 1980. When the organ’s new home was secured as the Grand Ledge Opera House in Grand Ledge, Michigan, he was responsible for the organ’s redesign and oversaw its installation and tonal refinement, where he has been House Organist since 1995. 

Mr. Smith is a life-long resident of Lansing, Michigan. He is the owner of Scott Smith Pipe Organs, LLC, a full-service pipe organ business that services and restores both theatre and church/classical pipe organs. He has worked extensively in the field of pipe organ maintenance and restoration since high school, when he joined the volunteer crew that restored and maintained the Barton organ in Lansing’s Michigan Theatre. 

Parking is available in a gated parking lot on Gilbert St., behind the theater.
