Seek Small Busker Organ & Music
By Carlo Klemm

Hi all.  I'm new to the MMD and am wanting to get involved more with
playing a smaller 20- or so note street organ.  I live in Alberta and
am looking for a reasonably priced instrument with some music.

I'm looking for a good used model as I don't know how it will be
received here in Canada and I don't have the resources to buy a new
one and then buy the music.

As much as I like to be a traditionalist, I could easily be persuaded
to go for MIDI control, instead of rolls or books.  I am not much of
a carpenter or else I'd try that route, which I haven't closed yet.

Before you ask, I'm a 60-year-old semi-retired grandfather of soon
to be 5 and I have a seasonal job to keep me busy for the six weeks
leading up to Christmas, at which time the beard and wig come off.
I'm looking to try and be busy during the rest of the year.

Thanks
Carlo Klemm
