Midnight at the Caverns: Music from the Great Stalacpipe Organ, with Monte Maxwell

The sound of the "largest musical instrument in the world," the Great Stalacpipe Organ in Virginia's Luray Caverns, an instrument invented by Leeland Sprinkle, who discovered that striking certain rock formations in the cave produced musical tones. Halting, hollow, and oddly punctuated with percussive drips from the cave formations, Chopin Preludes, Greensleeves, Amazing Grace, Beautiful Dreamer, and especially Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata, as well as 10 other classics, sound completely fresh, haunting, and original. Featured in the 1998 CLUI exhibit "Subterranean Renovations: the Unique Architectural Spaces of Show Caves."
