- The company Frères Reygaert built a new organ for the Salle de Concert of the Conservatory in Verviers in 1937. It was inaugurated on December 19, 1937. Victor Hauglustaine, organ teacher at the conservatory, played the organ, in collaboration with Josette Michel, soprano, Alfred Angenot, tenor and Franz Gouvy, baritone.
- In the sixties of the twentieth century, the organ has been modified. Hubert Schoonbroodt was teacher at the time, so it is assumable that he was the consultant during this work. It is unknown which organ builder carried out the work. But the instrument was no longer in use after a couple of years. The organ was dismantled during maintenance works on the building around 1990. It has never been rebuilt. In 1994 the organ parts were stored in a corner of the room.
