In 1921, an Aeolian pipe organ with 63 stops and 3,650 pipes was installed in the new Conservatory at Longwood Gardens. This organ was enlarged to 79 stops in 1923, but in 1929 a much larger Aeolian organ was ordered for the new ballroom. The four-manual custom built instrument, designed by Swinnen has 10,010 pipes divided into 146 ranks, including five 32-foot pedal stops, and a full range of percussions. The organ was rebuilt in 1957-1959 and again in 2004-2013.
