This is really in, especially for me as I’ve never been to New Orleans. Thank you.❤

Calliopes are beautiful. I've played them on my electronic keyboard but never a real one. Boy, that would be thrill!

I love the calorie from a distance, I remember hearing one when I watched the Delta Queen on the Ohio years ago.😃

Thank you! Yes the Calliope was traditionally played at circuses, especially when the circus would parade down the main street of town on its way to the fair grounds!

@@AlextheHistorian As a steam whistle enthusiast this was a pleasure to watch. The Natchez definitely has the best and loudest whistle of the bunch! Thank you for this video Alex :)

Hmmmm People that don't like Calliopes shouldn't go to the French Quarter and maybe visit the Walmart on Tchoupitoulas Street instead -- there are no Calliopes there. lol

Calliopes are so cute makes me think of Mark Twain. People like us who APPRECIATE all historic respect it. Those that don't know or more less don't care they won't understand (the minority or majority of it all)

Yes I agree. I was really delighted by the calliope!

It's neat to hear the calliope...it really compliments the river boat. It would be nice to hear a competent calliope player, however...the person playing on your voyage played some wrong notes.

Yeah it did seem as though some of the notes were off but I wasn't sure if that's because I know nothing about playing music 😅
