Respect for the creators of these instruments, for their imagination and knowledge

[@askjeevescosby2928]

I miss when we had to make complicated machines to do tasks like this. We ended up with these amazing creations.

[@Melechkibitzer]

sometimes limitations can make creativity beautiful and interesting in unexpected ways

[@EstamosDe]

Today we have people creating things that makes you fly or that makes robots using just air to move them and no electricity. We still have this crazy inventions but they are in new forms, youtube is full of them!

[@GreedPainLove]

Well computers are very complicated instruments!

[@askjeevescosby2928]

@GreedPainLove they are but they are nowhere near as amazing to watch as these mechanical masterpieces

[@GreedPainLove]

@@askjeevescosby2928 True that

[@jesseamaya4413]

The ingenuity that went into the creation of this wonderful piece of mechanical art just blows my mind.

[@joeterp5615]

What an amazing work of art! Hearing this is like having the creator himself leap through time to show off his wondrous creation - just as fresh awe-inspiring as the day it was completed!

[@100PercentOS2]

Though this lovely old organ has seen better days, it still sounds great.

[@bug3518]

As much as I'd love to see it in it's prime, there's beauty in it's aged appearance too

[@Zenas521]

This is when Engineering and Artistry work together on a common basis. We need more of this and less soul sucking AI.

[@joseluispaternina]

That man in front, was not there, his mind blowed up back to childhood.

[@steelman86]

The first time i saw one of these organs with the stacked, foldable music was on the streets of Holland, many, many years ago! It was very special for sure!!! If ever in Southern Ca out by Magic Mountain, venture over to San Sylmar and the Nethercutt (Merle Norman Cosmetics) collection to see AMAZING PLAYER REPRODUCER instruments as well as hundreds of 100 point vintage automobiles! Plus a UP private railway car with small player organ on board it! Call ahead for appointment to the tower of beauty!

[@bobdear5160]

Most of the surviving examples I’ve seen have been Belgian Cafe Organs. Some were still in the cafes in Belgian parks in the 1970s. I hope they are still there!

[@BitSmythe]

Wow, a warehouse full of ‘em. I wanna go there!

[@jeffreykoerhuis7283]

Only three organs there. This is the only one that works though.

[@jeffreykoerhuis7283]

@@jerryvandyke9216 It can't I'm afraid. It's owned by the Dutch Openairmuseum and for that reason the organ is part of the Dutch historical state collection. It can only be loaned to other museums.

Ein sehr schön gestaltetes Kunstwerk ,diese alte Orgel 😊

[@peteacher52]

Love it! Reminds me of the time in the early 80s when Piet Kee brought some street organs into St Laurens, Alkmaar to play with the big church organ.

[@eva.nete.]

Wow, welch hervorragendes Kunstwerk da die Musik dazu zu hören :) 🔝👏😍🎶👌

[@arnostoermer3563]

Fantastisch!😍😍😍😍😍

[@patrickverhooi]

voor mij persoonlijk de mooiste mortier die er is

[@guymandudely324]

More amazing was that they disassembled these monsters and carried them from town to town so people could dance to the music.

Hele mooie Mortier, met daarnaast nog een hele mooie Gavioli!

[@thijsverkaaik5946]

Ik ben heel benieuwd hoe het met De Schelm is. Speelt het orgel nog en zijn er nog concrete plannen voor?

[@mooixdraaien]

De Schelm speelt niet. Er zou schade zijn door muizen uit de tijd dat ie niet in een goede opslag stond. Misschien dat het museum nog eens zo ver komt om het te laten repareren.

[@jaredharris1940]

Its huge!

[@VaxVaxter]

I know the song is primarily Singin' in the Rain, but does anyone know if that bombastic bit at the start and middle is from anything in particular? Or is it just a custom flourish from the composer/arranger?

[@thomasmaughan4798]

"bombastic bit at the start and middle" Same question here. It sounds familiar.

[@darthblader2002]

You are correct! “Singing in the Rain” was sung by “Gene Kelly” and “Debbie Reynolds”. 👍 😀
