This is amazing thank you so much for sharing this !It brought me pure joy !This is what child like wonder and magic sound like .I remember seeing these at that county fair as a young child and still even just watching this video really transports me to the same magical place !I know there are few people keeping this art form alive !Kudos to you !
So there is a key that activates the woodblock, as long as you take the note? Good invention! Saves a lot of work! Nice organ, Nick, did you change something on pipes? Sounds a bit more mellow compared to it's first cd.
Hi Hiddo! Correct - the woodblock plays instead of the snare drum for as long as the key is activated, which is also the register cancel key, so saves space in the music too. But no, I've not changed anything on the organ since completing the restoration in 2003. All the very best, Nick.
