Time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time.

In the "Interesting Musical Instruments" dep't: As I was passing through town, thought I would grab a shot of this amazing organ in the Muenster in Freiburg im Breisgau.

On a previous visit, Peter and I watched it being installed.... craned in, piece by piece. It took most of a day. (There's an additional remotely-managed "satellite" pipe installation closer to the altar, [out of view] on the right-hand side.)

The organist sits in the middle of the main pipe array... a bit like like a pilot in an aircraft. For the performer, the sound must be utterly awesome.

It's definitely worth stopping in to see it, and hear it, if you're passing through there. They do concerts, some evenings (but also at lunchtimes).

The new Ludwigskirche in Freiburg im Breisgau, standing right next to the old cemetery. Built in the 50s by Horst Linde. It’s a home to stained glass works of Harry MacLean. Mathis Orgelbau is behind the 1995 organs.

I really enjoyed the look of the unplastered red bricks in the inside walls and the combination of wood and concrete. Would spend more time there but got chased off by the awkwardness of encountering another human being.
