Описание к видео Wanamaker Organ Day 2009 - Walt Strony - "Over the Rainbow"

The Wanamaker Organ has 466 ranks, and is the largest playable pipe organ in the world.
Commanding these huge resources is a massive console with six ivory keyboards and 729 color-coded stop tablets. There are 168 piston buttons under the keyboards and 42 foot controls. The console weighs 2.5 tons; the entire instrument weighs 287 tons.
The smallest pipe is a quarter-inch in length. More than 8,000 pipes were added to the Organ between 1911 and 1917, and from 1924 to 1930 an additional 10,000 pipes were installed, bringing the total number of pipes today to 28,500. More information at
