Mechanical Music Videos On the Internet
By Piet Paardekam

Hello Robbie,  I'm afraid there will be no videos on our forum.
This forum is mainly intended to be the technical meeting place for
amateurs who are building an organ or do any related thing.  Yes,
there are some links to other sites for organ fans, spread over the
articles in the forum.

The URL of the forum is http://86.83.97.165/orgelforum  In the forum
there is an article that contains links to related sites.  Some of
these sites have lots of links to organ videos and photo albums.
See "Nuttige links . . ." in the archive section on the home page.

Otherwise search on YouTube with the keyword "draaiorgel" and you will
find masses of videos of playing Dutch en Belgian street and dancing
organs.  One of the links I give now:

  http://nl.youtube.com/watch?v=agGWguScUsM&feature=related 

This one shows a medley of musicals of Andrew Lloyd Webber, brilliantly
arranged by the famous Jan Kees de Ruijter.  The junior grinder is
Jan Joris who grinds this long book on this large organ exactly in the
right tempo.  I informally nominated him for "The Organ Grinder of the
Year 2008".  If you ever tried to grind such an organ you know why!

Kind regards,
Piet Paardekam
