Organ Playing 639-Year Version Of John Cage's "As Slow As Possible" Changes Chords
For the first time in two years.
"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”!"
