All the pipes for the organ are made of bamboo and it has quite unique sound.Buckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08749171392419046836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5488679290944922671.post-50701704583576657902009-05-13T13:36:00.000-07:002009-05-13T13:36:00.000-07:00Thanks Kelsie.

As an Anglican/Episcopalian personally, I highly value this CD...your discussion on that large pipe organ brought this one to mind: it spotlights both the choir and the large bass pipes of the instrument--I listened to it recently on a system with a subwoofer and was shocked at the fidelity of the bass (especially since the recording is a little old). It's a cheapie, too: $7.99 via Amazon.com, I think...Kelsiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03727502876677470750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5488679290944922671.post-3008556310508234422009-05-12T20:26:00.000-07:002009-05-12T20:26:00.000-07:00I'd say the world would be awfully boring without ...I'd say the world would be awfully boring without music... I love listening to music and making music, and without it I'd lack a certain peace. I've played piano and violin for just about my whole life, but its never to late to learn. Passion is, in part, what creates beautiful music. Someone without a passion for music would never play music as well as someone who truly loved it.E.noreply@blogger.com
