It is difficult to maintain an organ in a country where there are no organ technicians. If it cannot be maintained, this institution should not own the organ.
Those figures at the top need taking off at least I certainly don't think it's original to have fair organ figures on a Dance Organ. Interesting that this Mortier has some brass trumpets tho.
@@HarryYT22 Neither the figures and trumpets are original as far as I'm aware. This organ was restored first of all in the 1970's or 1980's and at that point had already been cut down a lot, so a replica facade and some new pipework was later used to turn it into what you see here.
A beautiful instrument that needs to be tuned.

94 key Mortier “Dansant” dance organ
This used to be a good organ!, certainly suffering now!
Great organ, but few technicians in Asia have the expertise to keep it in good condition 😢
Sounding a bit tired!
