[Warning, newbie post] This is a phenominal looking organ but as many times as I've been to Benaroya Hall in Seattle, I've never heard it play... yet.

Re: Benaroya Hall (Seattle) 2000 C.B. Fisk Organ
For what it's worth, it really is a fairly awesome instrument - my instructor is seated as organist there, and I've had the occasion to hear him on it with the orchestra.
I have to say, though, I think I prefer the dual organs of Seattle's St. James Cathedral (you got it, same organist)... the new Rosales and the old Hutchings-Votey gallery organ are playable from a single, fairly cutting edge console, giving near 100 ranks of combined power coming at you from both ends of a cathedral with major ring. If you're in the area, you ought to check into the cathedral's organ recital schedule!
