Recordings on the James Walgreen Organ by students of James Kibbie at the University of Michigan are included in the

Jehan Alain Centennial Recordings.

The James Walgreen Organ at the University of Michigan was acquired in 1994 through a generous gift from James Walgreen in honor of his parents, Charles and Jean Walgreen. In 2007, the organ was placed in the newly-created Community Room of the School of Public Health. It serves as the focus for an ongoing series of solo organ and chamber music concerts, and is also available for teaching and student practice.
