Clarinet Polka Street Organ

[iStuffin]

I knew this was familiar!

Candy Mountain right?

Ha ha, good times!

So, this is the tune of the Candy Mountain song in the original "Charlie the Unicorn" video.

Great organ, by the way.

I still don't want to go in the candy cave

Nice music !! Polka arrangements are always so effective on these instruments.

Polka dziadek. U nas w radiu to jest.

Looks and sounds great. I've ordered the John Smith busker plans and they should arrive in a couple of days. How long did it take you to build it? I can hardly wait to get started after watching and hearing you videos. Thanks for posting them. What woods did you use for the pipes?

[powaybob]

@jimgsr281 Thanks! I'd estimate it took me about 6 months of spare time. I used balsa for the pipes, as suggested in the plans. I would use basswood if I did it again. You can get it from hobby stores. The front pieces are cherry.

Once I get my organ finished I'd love to have that tune, where did you find it or did you punch it yourself?

[powaybob]

@DebenValleyLightRail It's a Melvyn Wright arrangement.

We love Your pieces! Greetings from Poland!

@Phacias Thanks!

How much is one of those?

I'm afraid if it's a 20 note John Smith, you may have to build it yourself.

However, you may be able to pick up a second hand one somewhere.

As to price? Well depends on the quality. £1500 -£2000, who knows?

Hope that helps. There are organ kits available, by the way, if you can

build things yourself. May work out cheaper.

Cheers....Bernard
