When attending service in a large cathedral, you can’t miss the heaven-storming and majestic sonority of the pipe organs. Those pipe organs were installed by Pipe Organ Technicians who have been trained by one of few traditional pipe organ makers in the world. There are only a few locations where pipe organs are used, mostly churches and large auditoriums. Pipe Organ technicians are also called upon to perform tuning and repairs of these installations.
