Mechanical Music Videos on YouTube
By Adam G. Ramet

Hi there,  I've put a short video clip of the very fine Gasparini street
organ, "De Lieve Stem", at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sdx_dLJZ8Ik
Attachment thumbnail There's a short note about it there and I thoroughly recommend getting hold of the CD if you don't already own a copy. It is probably the oldest street organ anywhere and is the only instrument anywhere still playing from this unique 1930 scale. Additionally I've put a few Aeolian player organ clips online also (the first on YouTube!) : Max Hoffman's "Yankee Land" -1904 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjlrV0B4KDQ
