I've posted a new video of Schumacher's Wurlitzer 146A, with more to come soon. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O9GL1lDUinU I also have posted a video of the DeBence museum's large Wurlitzer 'Calliola' band organ. You can check it out here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=39fih1lFzmI

loved the video of the Wurly 146-a, I especilly enjoyed "Hop de doo". After hearing it on a 49-key Bruder, you can really tell the differance between the scales. The march I heard on a Wurly 153(Katy Lou) quite the differance. To any body watching that video do take notice of the melody trumpet register.

I apologize really I am so senial literally it's quite a bother.

Wurlitzer 146 - Ben Hur Chariot Race http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZasZMFCxt3M

Wonderfu video. Heard the march on both the Stinson 87 at the Griffith Park Carousel and the Glen Echo Wurlitzer 165 and I think that arrangement is better than the 150. The 150 arrangment is to slow.

I agree, this particular video has the tempo set a little too slow for this march. Some cuttings of this tune repeat the first two sections, but with the abbreviated introduction as specified by E. T. Paull. One thing I would do differently (among a few small other differences on my own virtual 146 version) is to include a repeat of the first theme, I like the way it ends the first time.

I've known a lot of carousel men over the years that always set the tempo a little on the slow side. When asked the answer was usually "to stretch it out". Also depending upon what shape the organ was in the slower the tempo the more likely that all the notes (mostly) would play. E.T.Paul "tone poems" were ususally nothing less than frentic , and would say that they are a definite -*test*-('") of what kind of shape your pumps and action are in.

something slightly more concerning and scary to watch http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=-1RfyhYei5U&feature=related if you watch it carefully, it apears the organ smashed is actualy crates, I hope, still a nice facade demolished though.

There's a nice picture of this prop around here somewhere. It was apparently made out of scraps that Johnny Verbeeck had lying around, and he desperately wanted to get rid of! A quote from the MMD on this topic: I can reassure MMDers about this. Some years ago Johnny and Mareika Verbeeck visited us in New Zealand and over lunch Johnny told me the story of this shot. He was approached by the film makers and commissioned to build a fake organ. He was delighted, he said, because it was a chance to get rid of all the junk in his workshop. The film was duly made and Johnny told me he had only one regret, which was that they got it right the first time -- so he was not required to build another dummy draaiorgel. Michael Woolf New Zealand On a side note; anyone got a clue on what kind of organ scale the book that is thrown onto the police car is from? With the percussion all grouped together at one end, I'm suspecting something in the large Decap region (and a tango too if I'm not mistaken!). For those who aren't too good at using the pause button, here's a frame capture:
