Beautiful. Slightly out of tune but nice none the less.
This song suits me well 🎃
The pianos in these taller orchestrions sound more like Grand Pianos than your typical upright or spinet pianos you tend to have in your smaller home.
Great instrument. Sounds like It needs some tuning.
The organ is howling out of tune. Clearly it's not owned by a music lover.
How are the sheets or rolls cut?
If this was on Spotify I would listen to it all the time
Fabulous historical machine! So great to hear. Unfortunately the pipes need to be all tuned higher. They all play flatter than the piano and xylophone. This performance suffers from this lack of basic musical pitch regulation. The hand carving of the cabinetry is superb. Thanks for sharing!
What if we had a rush e sheet and played it on this machine
Waar kan men dit toestel zien spelen?
Dancing skeletons!
Truly a grade instrument love it
Good thing for a carousel
Love it, but the organ badly needs tuning.
I love these thing. There’s an amusement park near me called Knobles and their grand carousel has an Orchestrion in it. It’s great.
You go over to his place and this is what's playing. wyd?
Thank you very much
Totally awesome 👍 Very cool 😎 Thanks for posting this 🙏
nice work, bravo !
Now just stick this in an old abandoned house and get a bunch of teens in there. Spooky.
Well, for an out of tune "orchestrion", it's still worth a listen and "Danse Macabre" Is a good choice.
Absolutely amazing. I saw a decommissioned orchestraion at the Crescent Hotel main lobby in Eureka Springs and had to look up a video of a working one! Stunning!
Bravo !
Oh my gosh, I love this!!!
Pipes sound alot better now thanks for tuning them!
4:45 sounds like someone is having a party at their house and then their parents walk in.
If ever there was a perfect instrument for the intended eerie nature of the composition, this has to be it. I can imagine a Disney "ride" with this instrument playing this dance with ethereal skeletal figures twirling around the floor, and the orchestrion in a dimmed spotlight and the keys playing, but nobody's there.
This thing does whatever it's doing the best it could be done, that's for sure
believe it or not, but we just destroyed such. They called it the Haunted House. It was located in the amusement park in the Netherlands called De Efteling. It was one of the first "rides" you could take. Basically walking along a wall of glass and inside was a great scene of all kinds of stuff. Moving skeletons, all of it. Gravestones dancing. And this song playing on the background while you attended the ride. Unfortunately the park decided it was a great idea to build something new, and so they ripped down this wonderful piece to replace it with something new. I have yet to check the new stuff. The old Haunted House (or as we call it: Het Spookslot) was opened on May the 10th, 1978. So not to burst your bubble, but it existed for decades here in the Netherlands. But they demolished it. Perhaps they did use this music in the new "ride". I have no clue. Have yet to visit the park again. But they have been changing a lot in the park. Old stuff is getting torn out and replaced by new stuff. Some i can not agree with. I mean: Just enlarge the park to build new stuff. Dont tear out old history which started the park. But then again, it is located in a very nice piece of nature in the Netherlands. One of the few parts that has not yet been spoiled entirely. And so to enlarge the park would mean less nature. If you do not know De Efteling, the dutch amusementpark, pls, look it up. It has a wonderful history, wonderful "rides", all the rest of it. And what you have described..... we had it for almost 5 decades. So, no need to imagine it. It was done. Been there, done that. Like the moon. No need to ever go back to it, right? (that last line was a bit of sarcasm, and a joke towards those who still believe in fairy tales like the ones shown in the Fairy Tale Forrest (Sprookjesbos. I dunno how to translate it in better english. But there are a lot of people who still think the dancing shoes move on their own without any trickery. And there are a lot of people who still believe people actually set foot on the moon.Same kinda fairy tale.)
Super video and restoration !
Roger, every minute invested in restauration and maintenance to this mechanical masterpiece is worth its time. Working in the digital industry this is vacation for the brain. Well done - and thanks for sharing!
I re.ember seeing the Seeburg plant from a CTA train in the 1960,s and 1970's. IT WAS HUGE!!!
Such a beautiful player piano. The sound was awesome too. I'm more impressed with this than the street and circus organs.
Me too! I've been binge watching these videos. I'm in love with the Centenary Organ ❤
Love to have something like this, but would be a bit large for my dinky apartment!!
Its like an ancient sampler.
There should be a 2.0 build of this instrument, which supports MIDI from your phone, but AI can truly be beneficial at helping rebuilding replicas of antique things like the musical instrument in the video
or have some form of bluetooth connectivity and software so that you can play any kind of music.
That's what it's going to be, it won't rely on the internet but it will rely on Bluetooth connectivity so the midi data will be transferred through Bluetooth to the orchestrion itself I mean MIDI .@@FranzFerdinandVIII
What a glory! I didn't even know of this model. Wonderful - thanks j
It's even more "macabre" by being out of tune! :>)
I just want to say, this is by far one of the best filmed orchestrions I've seen. You're camera work and editing was excellent on this video! I loved the close-up shots of the keys depressing, there's something so satisfying about the keys coming down in a player piano or other instrument! The audio could've probably been better if you used a microphone but this is amazing!
That house is haunted! I suggest you get an exorcist.
That is wonderful. Beautifully restored. it's got everything
Brilliant!
There is something wonderfully sinister about watching the keys depressing for this atmospheric piece of music. Even the slightly off sound (not sure if it's the instrument or the acoustics of the room) adds to the other-worldliness of it all. Fabulous! (But I'd love to see a film of it playing somewhere more atmospheric than a sterile-looking garage - perhaps at Miss Havisham's dining room or in the ruined hall of some gothic mansion.)
The pipes are wooden, so that means their tuning is subject to swelling caused by variations in humidity. A few notes will therefore sound like clunkers. It also looks like an old upright piano, which is slightly harder to tune because their sound boards are more compact. But definitely a well-kept machine.
Beautiful orchestrion! This piece really shows off the instrument. I would have played it just a little slower though. The first part especially seems a little rushed.
This machine is incredible......but please tell me how or why anyone would give this beautifully recorded video a thumbs down!
🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Great job, ignore the haters
yes. no one likes haters
Why are there haters here? @@andrewlardieri4110
Way too cool!
Lots of variation in the sounds produced. Marvelous instrument. Incredible engineering. Thanks for this posting.
Wish i had one of these. so cool
I imagine this music playing to turdeau enacting all his draconian laws.
Out of tune, certainly...it is an old...very old...MACHINE. It is a beautiful restoration. You want perfect pitch...patronize your local symphony.
