In the Macy's Department Store, downtown Philadelphia, lives one of the greatest organs the world knows. Lovingly cared for by Curt Mangell and his staff and lovingly played daily by Court Organist Peter Conte and his staff, this monumental instrument is a site to behold. After hearing the daily 5:30 p.m. recital we were treated to a tour of the console and some divisions of the pipe work.

This organ has no relationship to Opus408D but it was a great way to break up the 11 hour trip from Indianapolis to NYC!
