[@charlesleyes870]

Totally agree.

[@markmiller3713]

Very well said.

[@charlesleyes870]

I do think so. Bless those who learn to play them well.

[@ScorieDivine]

@@ipodbily Quite the opposite. The cost of maintenance, rarity, and required space of a serious organ combined make them entirely inaccessible to most organ players. A lot of them wait on for years, sometimes decades, to get ahold of them. Beautiful organs in beautiful churches are many things but common or expecting the first player to show up. Atheists pursued entire ecclesiastic careers to get their hands on the instrument of their dreams.

[@sylvanbear7125]

There is *nothing* in any other culture than even begins to express music with the clever inventiveness that so magnifies exaltation. From ancient Greece to Bach's Thuringia, the organ has been the king, nay, the world emperor, of instruments! And so the Baroque organ remains, despite all the electronic falderal, supreme.
