    I have to admire the way you turn that handle. You are a true musician Sir.

      Assuming you're from Georgia in the USA, not Georgia in Europe, you can go up to Holland Michigan. They have a little dutch village theme park with a beautiful street organ.

      It is! Frequent arm changes are essential, as is standing still to savel energy, all whilst keeping the perfect speed. Unfortunately the International Olympic Committee have yet to recognise organ grinding as an Olympic sport.

    This is absolutely amazing!! I know I’ve heard the second song before, but I can’t remember the name. I know the first one is “Don’t Mean a Thing,” and the third one is “Sing Sing Sing.”

    The bicycle is as old as these instruments, why on earth were pedals were never used on these? My shoulder injury and just sensible ergonomics leaves me wondering. I restore that other pedal operated music instrument from just into the 20th century, the player piano.

    I can listen Street Organs for hours, the only think I dislike is the percussion it isn’t needed it distracts from the sound of the organ.
