Most of my contacts and now friends are retirees. Many of this group are 70-90 years old. These people are my inspiration. They are full of happiness and energy. I'm not sure where the energy comes from...maybe some magic pill; but I do know where the happiness comes from...music. What's common among this group is the love of music...not only listening to it but participating in it. Some didn't take up playing until retirement when time became available. Many areas of the country offer adult class lessons that are not only educational but loads of fun. There is no pressure because the instructors understand that this is a hobby and having fun is a must. Today's classes make learning easy. So check you schedules and squeeze out a little time each week for having fun.<br />On our last blog we recommended immusicstore.com.

A little over a month ago my wife and I were invited<br />to hear the Wanamaker organ. The Wanamaker is hailed as the world’s largest<br />organ. We drove to Philadelphia, parked and stood in line for the Wanamaker<br />Department Store (Now Macy’s of Philadelphia) doors to open. As we entered<br />and proceeded to the middle of the store…Grand Court, we unexpectedly saw<br />an orchestra tuning up. We quickly learned it was the Philadelphia Philharmonic<br />Orchestra. I counted over 110 musicians and over 70 in the string section alone.<br />We sat in center court next to the jewelry counter and if you looked up and to the<br />left…a full view of the magnificent organ…look up straight you see 5-6 floors<br />of exposed pipes and shutters. The whole idea was the Philadelphia orchestra in<br />concert with the Wanamaker organ and not a dueling match with orchestra.<br />The Wanamaker organ with 6 keyboards, over 700 stop tablets and 28,468<br />speaking pipes could have dwarfed the orchestra at any given time. You could<br />not describe with words the awesome sounds we heard for the next one and half<br />hours. Peter Richard Conte, (not related) resident organist since 1989, performed<br />exquisitely, blending beautifully, the sounds of the organ with the orchestra.<br />The concert started with the infamous Toccata and Fugue in D Minor by<br />Bach. We heard arrangements and pieces by Stokowski, Marcel Dupre, Howard<br />Shore and Joseph Jongen with a final medley including a fantastic rendition of<br />Pomp and Circumstance. One never had to guess when the organ was playing…at<br />times the pedal sound alone seemed to move the whole department store.<br />…Hats off to Macy’s of Philadelphia for continuing to house and support what<br />is now a National Historic Landmark valued at tens of millions of dollars. Many<br />thanks to a worldwide group of sponsors and supporters and the Friends of the Wanamaker Organ who continually maintain the organ and keep it in top playing condition. The organ is played twice daily and a “must hear” for those organ<br />buffs who want to make a trip to downtown Philadelphia<br /><br /><br />SPECIAL OF THE WEEK<br /><br />Pre-owned Roland Atelier AT-90R organ Over $27,000<br />when new Now $5000. like new condition<br />Free delivery within 100 miles of Lancaster PA.
