a type of keyboard instrument that produces sound by forcing air through metal reeds when keys are pressed
A reed organ is a keyboard instrument that produces sound by blowing air through metal reeds, similar to those in a harmonica. The organ has a set of keys that control which reeds are activated, and it uses a bellows, either manually operated or powered by a motor, to push air through the reeds. The resulting sound is rich and resonant, with a tone that can vary depending on the specific reeds used and the design of the instrument. Reed organs were commonly used in homes and churches in the 19th and early 20th centuries and are valued for their warm, expressive sound.
