Framlingham Church Organ


All of year 6 today had a demonstration about the workings of a pipe organ. Framlingham's church organ is over 300 years old and is a beautiful instrument to look at / listen to.



We took part in a series of activities which looked at how sounds are made, how they travel and how they can be altered.



We worked as a group on a large organ simulator. Some people had to pump in the air, others pushed the air into a tube whilst some of us controlled the valves on a series of pipes.
