The Met is one of the few opera houses in the world with its own pipe organ! Thomas Lausmann, the Met’s Director of Music, tells us about the instrument, which has nearly 1,300 pipes and weighs almost nine tons, as well as its recent restoration that was completed just in time for the 2022–23 season. Experience the organ now in Puccini’s Tosca (bit.ly/3HG2Chb) and Britten’s Peter Grimes (bit.ly/3aY33Hc). | The Metropolitan Opera
