The organ a 1926 Mortier dance hall player from Belgium, is behind the Club bar at one end of the rink and is played pre-game and during tours of the arena. It plays Wagner and Tchaikovsky. Most fans don't even know that the music they are listening to prior to the start of the game is from the organ. It operates like the antique player pianos where a scroll is inserted and it plays music. Don't think it is ever actually played by an organist.
