What's a Pierement ?
By Michael Woolf 

I'm following with interest the discussion about various names for
barrel and other organs and one that has always intrigued me is
"Pierement."

I've been told by Dutch speakers that this is a slang term and would
like to find the true derivation of this term, which is in common use
in the Netherlands.
