Mechanical Music in the Movies
By Bjorn Isebaert

Some years ago, I saw a movie on the local TV-net about the World War II, in which a barrel organ (or actually better: a "draaiorgel") played quite a "big rolle." I believe a part of the title of the movie is "Amsterdam", but I don't know if it was an English or American movie. The organ was owned by H. Gossling (a famous Dutch renter of organs) and in the movie it was used as a shield and a kind of alarm-signal.

Hope this helps, Bjorn Isebaert
