"Easter Roll" Music for Perkasie Carousel Updated
By Cassidy Juraniec

[ Ref. https://www.mmdigest.com/Archives/Digests/202503/2025.03.04.01.html 

Hello! For this "Easter Roll" I have discovered that more Easter 
songs exist through a music feature on Instagram on which they had 
a couple of Easter songs you can choose from. 

After finding those songs, I did a little research on classic 
Easter songs and found a few more which exist on the Rankin Bass 
Easter Specials as well as the 1974 Peanuts Easter Special. It 
just happened to be that there are 10 classic Easter songs.

My Easter MIDI file roll I am producing for the Wurlitzer 150 
scale will now consist of ten tunes instead of just two. For now, the 
roll will be played exclusively on the Stinson Model 31 band organ, 
"Menlo Park", at the Perkasie Carousel in Perkasie, Pennsylvania.

I will upload videos of each tune as I go along making them and 
fully finish each tune. Below is what my Easter roll looks like now.

Easter Roll (current version):

1. Here Comes Peter Cottontail (Gene Autry's version)
2. Easter Parade (original 1933 edition)
3. Happy Easter(Easter Parade movie)
4. The Bunny Hop
5. There's That Rabbit (The First Easter Bunny)
6. The Easter Bunny's Comin' to Town
7. The Funny Little Bunny
8. The Chicken Dance
9. It's the Easter Beagle, Charlie Brown Theme
10. In Spring, The Easter Bunny Never Sleeps (Peter Cottontail 1971)
