The pipe organ, whose approximately 6,100 pipes will be installed =
beginning in February 2003, was designed by Los Angeles organ designer =
Manuel Rosales, who did the sound design and Gehry, who did the organ =

Subject: [rodgersorgan] Organ at Walt Disney Concert Hall???
Hi,
I know that many on this list are also into classic pipe organs. I saw =
a photo of the new organ at the Walt Disney Concert Hall here in Los =
Angeles (opening in a few months). The best way I can describe it is to =
picture a handful of pick-up-sticks stood on end in a coaster and going =
in all sorts of random directions, those are the pipes. At the base of =
this mess semi-surrounded by the pipes is the console. The person =
making the presentation about the hall had little information about the =
organ other than he thought it was a German builder and also was under =
the impression that it was a tracker action.
Does anyone have the full scoop on this abomination! Believe me you =
have to see it to believe it.
