Identify X and Y.
X was conceived and largely built by Danish architect Jørn Utzon, who in 2003 received the Pritzker Prize, architecture's highest honour. X is considered to be his masterpiece.
X is an iconic monument, which is mostly famous for its Y, the design for which involved one of the earliest uses of computers in structural analysis, in order to understand the complex forces to which it might be subjected. The parts of Y were all created as sections of a sphere.
Among other things, X also houses the largest mechanical tracker action organ in the world, which has over 10,000 pipes in it.
