    No, I mean Elhanan Q. Hackenback. St. Gladys de la Croix??? Never heard of it, and I'm sure I would have by now, if it really existed.

    The version I saw had a long, LONG story about the process of building the organ, which seemed to go on for generations. But of course, the "expected completion date of c.2015" hasn't gotten here yet. Just give them time. But the stop list in your citation is pretty impressive.

    Strange, when I lived in Washinton Heights in New York I never did once run across a Cathedral named St. Gladys de la Croix, but of course, its a fictional Cathedral. Now, if you travel in a southerly direction from Washington Heights you come to a place called Morningside Heights. There is a Cathedral(St. John the Divine) which can easily swallow up and provide the acoustic required for the Elhanan Q. Hackenback organ

    St. John the Divine is just that, in all regards.

    Speaking of super-low frequencies, the following experiment is rather fun to "listen" to.

    + YouTube Video
