New Musical Arrangements for Mills Violano
By Wayne Finger
This year for the Holidays, you can hear new versions of "Santa Baby",
"Baby It's Cold Outside" and "Nut Rocker" for the Violano Virtuoso, an
antique musical instrument made by the Mills Novelty Company about 100
years ago. Watch and listen to them play at the following YouTube links:
Nut Rocker: http://youtu.be/BOAuQIwzgCw
Baby It's Cold Outside: http://youtu.be/vBeDiL9jpYw
Santa Baby: http://youtu.be/vqieYc8Ae98
I gave a workshop in October at the MBSI annual convention, explaining
how musically challenged people (like me) can arrange MIDI music for
automated instruments. It is more straightforward than one would expect.
Rumor is that it will soon be available for members to view from the
Musical Box Society International website, http://www.mbsi.org/
Hope you enjoy the new music.
