Have you ever wondered how a pipe organ works? Can you tune it like a piano or a guitar? Where do all those different sounds come from? Do organists really play with their feet?
.
From brilliant trumpet fanfares at weddings to soft whispering chords during Communion, the pipe organ provides a wide range of musical sounds and is rightly called the “King of Instruments”.
.
A tour (“crawl”) of the historic 1923 Casavant organ at St. Peter Church will be led following 5 PM Mass on Saturday, August 1 and 11 AM Mass on Sunday, August 2. Opportunity to play and look inside the chambers will be included.
