Mr R.A.F. Mears and his massive human organ
"The picture was taken in the grounds of Warwick Castle in 1929... It was a performance of Gustav Holst’s Golden Goose, a choral ballet, put on by a Mr R.A.F Mears and the boys of Warwick school. The human organ turns out to be, in fact, gnomes under the Magician's (Mr Mears) control. The performance was actually put on to raise funds for St Nicholas Church which still stands in Warwick.... it caught the attention of Gustav Holst himself, who travelled to Warwick to see the dress rehearsal."
