Robin has the right title, but the march BLUE DEVILS has been composed by Charles Williams in 1929 and probably arranged by Gerard Razenberg for this organ.
I understand it is sometimes necessary to arrange collections of organs such as this due to space and accoustics, but it seems a shame that the art on the facade is almost too far away to be seen properly.
Well, it is really incredibly loud for such a small space. And seeing as scaring people out of the museum is the last thing they wanted, this was probably the best solution. This is believed to be the oldest surviving Marenghi organ in the world, so we should at least be glad its still in fine playing order!

Indeed. The composer just lifted pieces from "Swanee River" and "Alexander's" to build the verse.
