blog-worthy

Given the subject of the previous entry, this little snippet seemed appropriate for sharing:
The organ is the enemy of worship, as most Christians know. Scripture says, "Be still and know that I am God." This is not the organist's philosophy. Organists despise stillness. They're sitting there with the organ equivalent of a 300 hp Ferrari and they want to put the pedal to the metal and make that baby fly.
