The organist Anna Lapwood, in a sleeveless black dress, stands behind an upper-level guardrail in a church and gestures upward at the enormous metal pipes behind her, which are embedded in the giant wooden frame of the church’s pipe organ. Sunlight illuminates Lapwood and the largest pipes, while the rest of the scene is in shadow.

The great organist Anna Lapwood, on her tour of the US last year, showing off the mighty pipe organ at the Church of St Ignatius Loyola in NYC. I’m not a churchgoer but I made an exception to see her play.
