Mechanical Music Sites in Italy
By Philippe Rouillé
In the last digest, Jim Canavan asked : > I'm going to be in Rome & Florence, Italy for the last two weeks in May
Here are two sites I mention in my Web site Musica mecanica :
Museo di Strumenti Musicali Meccanici, 48020 Savio (Ravenna), S. S. Adriatica 16, km 163 (Borna Km 163 on the N16). Direttore : Famiglia Marini, Tel. + 39 (0)544/560547 -- A very large collection (several hundred instruments).
Museo Nazionale degli Strumenti Musicali, Pza S. Croce in Gerusalemme, 9-a, 00185-Roma. Direttore : Dr Antonio Latanza, Tel. : +39 6 701 47 96. -- Beautiful collection of about 3,000 musical instruments, with many rooms devoted to mechanical music. Dr Latanza is a specialist of pneumatic pianos.
Have a nice trip to Italy !
