    Video of Great Organ-Washington National Cathedral

    http://media.cathedral.org/btst-organ.wmv A tour of the Great Organ prior to the redue/update. Interesting.

    I'm so happy to hear it is to be restored rather than replaced with a "modern" instrument.

    Thanks for sharing that link, Bill.

    Like Europe, the US has a good number of very fine installations, too.
