The wiring governing electric impulses comprises over 300 different relays, 2,000 aulo- matte switches and 5,000 contact points. The organ has been built by the

Playing Groven's organ is no more complicated than playing a normal organ once the key switches have been mastered. Music of all kinds can be play- ed on it. Folk music, oriental or - native tunes, Gregorian chants, cinmical or moden ajonal music present no difficulties here.
