What is an "organ"?

An organ is a keyboard instrument that produces sound by forcing air through a series of pipes. It typically has multiple keyboards, known as manuals, and a set of foot pedals that control different sets of pipes. When a key is pressed or a pedal is activated, air flows through the pipes to produce various pitches. The organ is known for its rich, powerful sound and its ability to create a wide range of tones and effects.
