Designed to impress - and it certainly does. The amount of work put into that decoration is extraordinary. Oh to have been a 1920s fairground organ facade designer - you could let your wildest architectural fantasies rip! Sounds nice too.

Wow Tom! First of all, what a color full and impressive work of art in the color photo of this beautiful concert organ. And such a variety of tunes in that 16 min medley with warm and fun arrangements. Just another example of your great contributions to the world of fair organs.. Thanks! Paul

Thanks Paul, i did at first upload a video that was 47 mins long, but the copyright police claimed rights (as usual) on music the organ was playing by composers that were long gone and who's compositions are now well into the public domain, i suppose it is all about money as usual, Best, Tom.

This Concertorgan must have some amazing bass pipes. You can hear them throughout this recoding but especially in the middle of the recording. Amazing!!

I think the first tune is "Le reve passe" (hope I spelt it correctly!). I recognise some of the others, but the last 2 are "After the Ball is over" (which I'm sure everyone knows!) and "Parade of the Tin Soldiers" by Leon Jessel (a very good but insufficiently known composer)

I was in Keukenhoff several years ago and there was an organ playing Estudiana waltz. Do you know anything of this organ?

Tom, I would like to know what the 7:12 - 9:52 tune/song is? It is such an inspiring tune! I have listened to that section so often that if it was on one of my 78 rpm disc it would be worn out in spite of a new needle for each playing. Of course, no comparison to this recording and organ. I wish I could one day listen to this Gaudin 114 key Concertorgan. Mark.

Hi; I would also like to know the tune at the start of the video, please. It's been stuck in my head for days. Thanks
