"Monday, the organ played its first chord change in exactly two years. As the BBC explains, volunteers added another pipe into the organ to create a new sound. The next chord change is scheduled for August 5, 2026. The first 21 months of the performance were a rest — that is, complete silence. That’s 163,938 performances of 4’33”!"
