"[description]: In the golden age of silent film, movies were anything but silent. Sound effects and soul-stirring musical scores were often produced live through the use of a theatre organ. These huge, multi-part instruments were a crucial part of the cinematic experience in the 1920s and early 1930s, enabling films to set a mood and tell a stronger story without words. ... The instrument contains many technological innovations, including an electro-pneumatic relay that allows parts of the instrument to be placed in different locations. ",
