Churches, cathedrals and concert halls have those giant pipe organs producing sonorous organ sounds that cannot be equaled by any electronic organ sounds. Just like any equipment, they were once installed and undergo repairs occasionally by trained Pipe Organ Technicians who specialize on the specific reed or flue type organ technologies used.
