Dear MMD's, For almost two years now, the Musica Mecanica web pages
give in English, French and German an (almost) complete listing of
associations and museums related to mechanical music throughout the
world, and many other things (listing of events to come, photos and
descriptions of instruments, music, links, etc.).

Thanks to Olivier Delaroziere, web editor at the Musee des Arts et
Metiers (CNAM) in Paris, and to many contributors who pointed out to me
some changes of address, new museums, etc., I made yesterday many small
corrections and additions (several web sites) to these pages.
Several museums or attractions have been added : in Switzerland (CIMA
in Sainte-Croix), in Netherlands (Folkloreklanken, with several street
and fairground organs), in Japan (Musica Fantasia Automatic Musical
Instruments Museum) and in the USA (The Strand Emporium, in Galveston,
Texas).
Please have a look, and do not hesitate e-mailing to me if you know
about associations, museums, events, etc., which you do not see listed
in the web site, or errors you notice. I thank you in advance for
that.
Best regards,
Philippe Rouille (Paris, France)
