Hidden behind ornate grilles on either side of the stage in a theater are a number of rooms, each bristling with ranks of pipe (one rank sounds like a flute, another a musical foghorn, a saxophone, a violin, a trumpet) or the percussion instruments, ranging from a grand piano to a castanet, which gives the Wurlitzer its one-man-band versatility.
