THE
TROUBADOUR OF VOLENDAM
The Dutch street organ
CD featuring 13 tunes of mechanical music
Suddenly passers-by stop in the street because something is happening:
it's a rolling house, looking like a circus caravan which is painted
and ornated with candy pink, forest green, golden yellow, jet black.
The caravan has no door and is closed by many secret gearwheels bending
under mechanical spectra from which come the sounds and jerky gestures
of the small automata with their cockhat.

mechanical musical instrument. Though the great number of musical boxes
naively produce the musical style of the older times, others recreate
the work according to a new register,drawing the new lines of a second-rank
musical work.

THE
ART OF MECANICAL MUSIC VOL.2
Collection Claude Marchal
CD featuring 20 tunes of mechanical music VOL.2
For about twenty years ago, the public's understanding about mechanical
music instruments was essentially restricted to carrousel and fair organs
as well as musical boxes.We surely have to thank Claude Marchal and
later Marcel Goujon—both distinguished collectors— for a
better understanding of these mechanical musical instruments which nowadays
have been arousing the curiosity of numerous musicians, music lovers,
collectors, historians and musicologists (O.Roux).

out of wood. Specifications: Front side:: 7 metres - Height:

OF MECHANICAL MUSIQUE VOL.4
CD featuring 32 tunes of mechanical music
At the height of the technology of that time, the mechanical musical
instruments were able to perfectly produce an author's musical work.
This was very interesting for the composers—such as Debussy, Gershwin,
Paderewsky, Corto, Rubinstein...—who could moreover have both
their own music registered and strictly control the result.
