    I especially love the crawl about the inside, shame that annoying English man kept getting his ugly head in the way of the camera, especially when they were looking at the foot of the bottom C of the Contratrombone ... (my favourite stop, of course).

    Nice "quaint little" organ there, David ... .

    Surely a main pride of joy for Sydney .
    Enjoyed the video clips, too - very informative.

    Sadly most Sydneysiders don't even know of its existence. Such is the life of a population that loves cars, sport and dullardism.

    Hi David !
    I thought in Sydney was different.....I was wrong. It's like Athens....
    Great organ btw, very informative post.
    Thanks

    Panos - Sydney and Athens couldn't be more different if they tried.
