This set of videos really does an incredible job of recording a benchmark in the history of the instrument
I would make a generous donation to ride that Old Westinghouse Freight Elevator 😊
A wonderful video! What a magnificent machine!
sweet smell/taste could very well be lead
I watched this a few years ago and now I'm watching it again. Such interesting info! I wonder if Matt still works there maintaining this incredible instrument. Thanks Fran.
I like Matt's T-shirt…..presumably he visited Tauranga, NZ to attend the Silent Film Festival in 2016. I live near there. I also work in the pipe organ industry….yeah, it's pretty cool, and such a niche industry/craft to be involved with. Most of what I do is like what you see in this video, but way, way smaller in scale, as the usual church organ here only has about 800- 1500 pipes.
Really amazing stuff! Thanks so much for sharing!
That was fascinating. Thanks for filming it!
Amazing. Thanks Fran!
I wonder if some kind of ultrasonic wash could be implemented at least in the final/second stage of washing?
Just Great 👍 👌, Thank you so much too ALL 😊!!!!
Oh wow yay this recording begins where the organ is finishing ….Joplin rag: the easy winners!!!!!
Aw man, I can't believe you didn't bring pipe cleaners! they would of been so useful! I wouldn't of recommended "drāno" because of the lead pipes 😀 My favorite museum piece I own (came from the museum gift shop of the Field Museum in Chicago) is a brass statue of an Egyptian Cat I was grinning ear to ear when I bought it. 🙂
Very nice to see young people nterested in learning about and helping restore and keep such amazing feats of engineering and craftsmanship alive.
My organist at St John UCC in Louisville had a pipe go dead on him: he found a dead bat in it.
