Building a Renaissance Barrel Organ
By Robbie Rhodes

According to the book, "Drehorgeln", by Helmut Zeraschi, Dom Bedos
published his tome in 1778, which is a good two centuries after the
renaissance period.  Philippe Rouille suggests asking advice of
the National Museum in Utrecht.  The museum offers a CD with some
recordings of renaissance music:  CD STP 002 "De Koekoek en de
Nachtegal [The Cuckoo and the Nightingale]".
