If you watched yesterday and fancied a dabble into there are loads of recitals round the country, often free or just a donation welcome. They usually provide a leaflet about the pieces, the composer and the organist, as well as a history of the building and the organ.

As @annalapwood said, this is an instrument that plays throughout the entire building. I think of it as an air-powered synthesiser.

It's one thing to hear via speakers or headphones, but it's something else when the huge 32ft pipes of somewhere like Temple Church (shown here) rattle you to the core.
