"The tall peaceful trees would be like the pipes of a great organ…" (Claude Debussy)

"it is impossible not to be drawn upward, whether towards the spire of the church or cathedral or to the huge and daunting forest of pipes themselves. The organ dwarfs all comers, and unlike other instruments, it is this non-musical element which makes the organ stand apart. (Mike Harding)
