Mailbag: “Organ on Display”

September 6, 2009

Dear Michael,

Bonjour du Québec!
I heard that there is an organ, somewhere in the States, whose mechanism can be seen on the corridors at the rear of the instrument through glass windows.
Am I right and can you tell me where it is?

R.

 

R.,

Yes, it's the Boston University Symphonic Organ, designed as a functioning display.
