15.5" Polyphon Musical Box Discs on YouTube
By Jochen Schäfer

Hello all,  after identifying most of Jack Conway's cylinder music
box tunes, here comes the next activity.

Just uploaded on YouTube is my next 15.5" Polyphon series with
15 discs.  During this presentation I greet Mr. Stephen Kember and
the Rameslie House of antique music boxes in Rye, England.  He was
present on Japanese TV in summer four years ago, and I remembered
back while playing the "Gasparone" march by Milloecker, which he
brought on one of his cylinder music boxes during this documentation
(take a look and listen at the link I gave on).

Also, as promised, I bring the "Tyrolean" from "William Tell" by
Rossini, the third tune of Jack's cylinder music box.  As usual, my
dear Swedish-blond camera and Polyphon lady Sandra Kopf leads the
camera, and you can hear her with recognition to the upload just
before playing the last disc.  Here is the link:

Enjoy!
Best collector's regards from
Jochen Schäfer, a.k.a. Jochen Kopf
Marburg, Germany

P.S.:  Please don't forget the "Klangfarben" (sound colours)
transmission at http://www.ohrfunk.de/ about antique music boxes,
which will most probably run on May 14th.  It's still not in
production, but if I learn the exact details, I will let you know.
