The Sistine Chapel Choir, known as the Pope’s choir, visited the United States for the first time in 30 years in September 2017; as part of its historic concert tour, the choir visited the Basilica and the Erben organ.
At the Basilica of St. Patrick’s Old Cathedral in Lower Manhattan, Polina Maller, 11, took a few moments from her violin lesson to talk about her appreciation for music.
Today, the Erben Organ is the only large, mid-19th-century pipe organ left in America that’s intact in its original acoustic space. Lamenzo explains it is one of the most important historic instruments in the nation.
