Wanamaker Grand Organ at Macy’s in Philadelphia. Built in 1911, the world’s largest operational pipe organ is still in excellent shape, thanks to its preservation group, the Friends of the Wanamaker Organ. What’s so fantastic about this grand instrument is not just its opulent design, but the amazing sound it makes. You can hear it being played – for free – every day at 12:00pm, and most evenings at either 5:30 or 7:00pm. I was lucky enough to tour the console area and meet the staff following these 45-minute recitals.
