Yes indeed

The good thing, it isn't affected by room temperature and needs not often some tuning. Also the sound itself matches better with the music.

The Speyer Museum also was my entry drug to all of this!

Yeah its a shame, the Luise is one of my favorites :(

Im sorry to tell you, but these clips are in full length. I stopped the recording for some reason sometimes, so i packed them all in one video.

@@mechanicalmusicuploads5925 That's sad to hear, but I understand. Do you know the name of them?

@@Narayan_1996 No, sadly

Here is the same song on a Decap Monty organ, the song starts on 9:28 in the video below. ua-cam.com/video/pIJ7VcHxh_k/v-deo.html

@@Narayan_1996 I believe the song is "A Honolulu" by Georges Guetary

These instruments where build to last indeed

No, this is one of the original 8 or so known extant Maestos. There is one early all pressure one; six late ones in more or less standard cabinets like this (some with more swell shutters than others; some with mirrors in front and others with cloth panels in front); and one special custom one built for a restaurant, now in the Elztalmuseum in Waldkirch, which has a small Unika-like piano main control unit, with mandolin and roll frame but no pipes, and the 4 pipe ranks and percussion all in a small remote pipe chamber electro pneumatically connected with the piano control unit like a theatre pipe organ. In addition, the Wendel have made something like at least 6 or 7 replicas, one of which is in their museum, and another in the Hall of Halls Museum in Japan (not sure where all of the replicas are).

Here are the Maestos I know about. According to Mr Weber (interviewed by Q. David Bowers), approx. 60-70 Maestos were originally built by Weber, mostly in the 1920s (so very few early ones). Of that number, 8 originals are known plus 5 or 6 replicas by the MMM in Germany, as well as a few other non replica buildups playing the files on MIDI, such as the “Kinder Maesto” with Unified Reproduco pipes, built by Ron Schmuck in Canada. Here is the list: Original Maestos (8): Musee Baud, L’Auberson, CH Museum Bruchsal, Bruchsal, DE Special design with small keyboard piano unit with electrically connected pipes and percussions in separate chamber Elztalmuseum, Waldkirch, DE Only known early style Maesto; all pressure system Krughoff Collection, Downers Grove, IL USA (offered by Marty Persky) Nethercutt Museum / San Sylmar, Sylmar, CA USA Museum Speelklok, Utrecht, NL Previously auctioned in 2012 by RM Sotheby’s Ex Milhous Collection, FL Sanfillippo Foundation, Barrington Hills, IL USA Built 1926 Stahl’s Automotive Foundation, Chesterfield, MI USA Previously auctioned in 2016 by Morphy -- Replica Maestos: Apparently approx. 5 or 6 replica Maestos have been built by the MMM.

@@andrewbarrett1537 Isn't the one at Stahl's the one that was part of the Milhous collection? And what about the Maesto that was auctioned as part of the Yaffe collection?

Yeah, thats a Problem of the Museum in Speyer or Sinsheim, they are realy slow in repairing their instruments

Danke! Anhand deines Namens denke ich Mal das du dich für Drehorgeln interessierst, diese gibt es dort auch, habe aber leider keine gute Aufnahme bekommen

@@mechanicalmusicuploads5925 zumindest bekommt man einen tollen Eindruck

Thanks!

Yw

Would love to know the title :)

K let me try to find it

So kritisch sehe ich das nicht, es ist eben Kunst, da gibt es dieses und jenes. Finde jetzt auch nicht jede Fercade von jeder alten Orgel schön.

The Artobella Furiosa? It is a masterpiece of organ builders of the Elztal

At least it works, but this style of postmodern colorful “minimalism”? Is somewjat creepy

I like how the Artobella sounds, she is very loud in person too, compared to older organs is this just another style of art

The video uploader probably was not aware of witnessing the rare occasion to record De Nachtegaal entirely without its façade. I hoped someone would coincidentally catch this point in time, since I have learnt about the organ to be rebuild elsewhere in the museum hall.

@DerOrgelfan Yes, a lot of instruments where not playable at all (no coin insert to turn on the instrument, including the Nachtegal without its façade)

Yeah :)

Thanks!

I agree

I think the Organ at 6:43 is already dead, they should restore them

@@mechanicalmusicuploads5925 It seems that the full melody section is not functioning just like most of the countermelody section. In the intro, transitions and outro, we only here the cello(?) rank and the accordeon receives input for countermelody, accompaniment and bass only.

It Sounds like a robot band…

Yeah

@@mechanicalmusicuploads5925 yea

It is better for the Instrument if you dosent play the entire roll every time again (i think), but it isnt that much entertaining

I agree. If they applied this policy a few years ago, it could be seen as a resigned attempt to adapt the museum tour to peoples' decreasing attention span. ;-) But since they have done it in 1998 already at least, they might just want to shorten the tours to guide more moderately interested visitors through the collection per day.
