Organ Installation at Montserrat
-
Just ran across a bunch of You Tube videos describing--in Spanish--the installation of a new pipe organ at Monserrat Abbey in Spain.
Maybe of interest to some here. This one shows the installation of pipes in the church:

There's actually a website dedicated to the new organ: http://www.orguedemontserrat.cat/

I was there a couple years ago. Beautiful place! The organ looks wonderful. My Catalan is a bit lacking, but it does sound like he keeps saying something like "stoops."

Yeah, there they speak "high" Catalan!
