What is a "pipe organ"?

A pipe organ is a large, complex keyboard instrument that produces sound by directing air through a series of pipes. Each pipe is tuned to a specific pitch, and the sound is created as air passes through the pipes, which can be made of various materials such as wood or metal. The organ has multiple keyboards, called manuals, and a pedalboard, which allows the player to control different sets of pipes and produce a wide range of tones and volumes. Pipe organs are commonly used in churches, concert halls, and large public spaces, and they are known for their powerful, rich sound and versatility.
