I almost had a chance a few years ago to drop by that Macy's store to check out that organ. Great that some of these masterpieces can be preserved into the future.

One of my favorite organist, Cameron Carpenter, had the resources to design and have built, the worlds first International Touring Organ. Using samples and concepts from the world's best organs combined into this instrument in a portable form was unbelievable.

Cameron always tries to promote the organ and especially loves educating the younger generation into the history of the organ and it's evolving relevancy in modern times.

I think Cameron is insanely brilliant, insanely talented, insanely progressive, and to some, just insane. His input into this International Touring Organ, it's capabilities, and how he mastered his performances with this organ are nothing short of astounding.
