Harry in San Diego

On Monday, June 29, 2009 Harry, and Hector, traveled to San Diego, California so that Hector could perform at the Spreckles Organ Pavilion
during their 2009 Summer Organ Festival.

A few days before, Hector gave Harry a tour of the "workings" of this, the world's largest outdoor pipe organ - 73 ranks, 4,518 pipes - an Austin Pipe Organ.

Come with Harry and Hector as we explore...
