The music will be performed by 5 pairs of organists, and will be from the literature, mainly baroque, written for multiple instruments. One of the pipe organs will be located on the floor of the Courtyard, and the other from a balcony to heighten the antiphonal effects. Audience members will be seated in the round and will be able to experience this great music in the wonderful acoustics of the Eugene Atrium.
