Ah, "De Jupiter"! I was introduced to the wonderous sound of the Dutch street organ via my late uncle's copy of "Afternoon in Amsterdam" It sounds really good in this video. On the one on the museum's website has it playing "The Spaghetti Rag" which utilizes a rank of reeds that have been put back into it. While it may be historically accurate (Gavioli built it with them) to me Jac Minning's work will always epitomize the classic pierement, even more so than "De Arabier".
