Recording of Mortier Dance Organ "Amaryllis"
By Zach Goldstein

-- non-subscriber, please reply to sender and MMD --

 [ Ben Jackson inquired in 020515 MMDigest: ]

> Does any of you know where I can get CDs or tape recordings
> of the following dance organs: Mortier, Decap, Hooghuys

A recording of 27 (?) tracks of the "Amaryllis" Mortier dance organ
can be obtained from the music house museum, in Acme, MI.  I believe
you can order from their web site, http://www.musichouse.org/

This is the second largest surviving Mortier dance organ.  It was
completely and authentically restored by the experts at MHM.  It is
quite a sight to see play live (I myself have seen it play seven or
eight times), but the CD is nothing short of amazing.

Musically,

Zach Goldstein
