Well, the title is a little off because they're comparing their pipe building techniques with one of their pipe organs here: http://www.westminsterorganconcertseries.org/organ.html

Have fun watching!

Amazing Teutonic mastery.

Next time a millennial says "boomer" show them the video.

Always wondered how they got that brilliant shrill tone.

Lead interestingly is a key component in making the best sounds.How wood acids and other contaminants react with alloys. A science unto itself.where nanotechnology is being integrated to preserve the corrosion of pipe organ materials.

Yeah I'm aware of the whiskering and is a problem in Hammonds. The OSHA side of things is another matter.
