Inside a quiet church in Germany, a special organ [a large keyboard instrument that uses wind to make sound] is playing the slowest piece of music ever written. The song started way back in the year 2001, and it is being played so incredibly slowly that the next note won't change for years! Can you imagine waiting centuries just to hear how your favorite song ends?
