My dad has keys to the church that he lives next to, and hes a bit of a night owl so sometimes he would go over in the night and play the pipe organ for a few hours.

He can play piano/harpsichord well enough though he usually uses sheet music there, rather than memorizing the songs, so he wasnt like a professional organist or anything, but even as an amateur he was still pretty good.

I can remember a few times being able to faintly hear him playing while falling asleep in my bed. Most people might find it spooky to hear an organ playing in the night but I always found it comforting, knowing it was just my dad over there rocking out.

man thats awesome. Ive played in orchestras with an organ player, and those experiences are some of the most satisfying musical experiences of my life. Sounds like your dad has figured life out!
