Strange Duck a Choralcelo, not Orchescello
By Terry Smythe

Recent references to the Choralcelo incorrectly credit me as the
author.  In fact, the author is Wade Jenkins, who owned three of these
unique instruments.   All were recently donated to the National Music
Museum at the University of South Dakota in Vermillion, S.D.
( http://orgs.usd.edu/nmm )

Keith Bigger, who shares an affection for the Choralcelo, persuaded
Wade to write an article about the instrument.  The article emerged in
a mix of typewriter text and paste-up photos.  I scanned the manuscript.
Keith did the majority of the editing to make the final product suitable
for publication.  The full article may be seen by clicking on:
