Restoring a Tharaldsen Barrel Organ from Norway
By Harald Sakshaug

[ Ref. Gary Goldsmith in 190901 MMDigest ]

I have two Tharaldsen barrel organs, and might be of help during the
restoration.  I currently have in the house now a 5-rank instrument
for documentation, and might be able to provide measures and pictures
if needed.

We are currently working with a digital museum of the barrel organs from
Steinkjer, which have the name "Steinkjerpositives" here in Steinkjer.
This work might be available online later this year.  It will focus not
so much on restoration, but on more of the history and documentation,
with an image and music database of the remaining instruments.
