Limonaire "Trumpeteria" Organ in New York City
By Philippe Rouillé

A friend told me yesterday something a bit strange, and I would like
to know if there is some truth in it.  Would there be, on top of a
New York City building, a large organ (?), Limonaire style, something
called "Trumpeteria" (???).  Is it a joke, or could it be serious ?

Best regards,

Philippe Rouille  (Paris, France)

 [ A composition by P.D.Q. Bach (Prof. Peter Schickele) is entitled
 [ "Concerto for Horn and Hardart", which suggests 17th century wind
 [ instruments, but it's actually the name of a coin-op cafeteria in
 [ New York City!  (So I am told.)  -- Robbie
