Philipps Paganini Orchestrion at Utrecht Museum
By Niels Berkers

Hi all,  The grand Philipps Paganini orchestrion of the Dutch museum
'Van Speelklok tot Pierement' has recently been restored.  The first
video of the instrument is now on YouTube (not recorded by me):

Attachment thumbnail Please do note it doesn't sound as subtle as it should, as much of the expression functions are lacking because the front cover had been taken off. I made several recordings myself, too, which I'll soon put onto the Tube also. Just search for Philipps Paganini and you'll find them when they're there. Enjoy! Regards from the Netherlands, Niels Berkers
