New-built Chordephons
By Gerard Arkenbout
Hi Robbie, Here is my promised report about the Chordephon music boxes my former colleague has built. They are ready and playing in the "sublime harmonie" way. So coupled, they are playing sublime together.
The attached .gif files show the copies of the photographs we made, one with the discs mounted, another with the electrical and manual driving of the boxes. The attached .wav files present sounds for at least half a minute for each tune.
Isabella.wav is "Oh Isabella, sie laest mich nicht"
besen.wav is "Besenbinder March"
donau.wav is a part of the tune "An der schoenen blauen Donau"
My colleague has a number of tunes (about 27), still he wants to have some more discs. Where can he find them?
Happy listening.
Gerard Arkenbout,
Leidschendam in The Netherlands.
