Mason & Hamlin Liszt Foot-Pump Reed Organ, Pt. 2 - by Artis Wodehouse

Thank you. New to the world of reed organs, but partial to Mason & Hamlin, that is a wonderful instrument. Hopefully, there is a M & H in my future. And as a basic tutorial, very well done. I learned alot.

Fabulous Reed Organ! Thank you for making this video.

Thank you for all you've done. I first discovered the piano roll CDs in middle school and played them countless times. Your reed organ exhibitions are a gift to everyone who encounters an un-restored reed organ. Your contributions help show the world how these instruments were built to perform.

I scored myself a Waterloo for a couple of dollars. (NZD) I'm pleased with it's beat up appearance but it's tone could be a bit better and it's 10 stops don't really span out enough.

Excellent information on the pump organ. These are wonderful old instruments and they have such lovely sound. I have a lovely old Bell that has a beautiful sound and has 17 stops. I will now know how to use the stops. Thanks so very much. All the best to you.

Thanks for the info. I do know that the"Romantic" organ was expanded by Liszt but did not know of his input with these "smaller" organs.

If this was made in 1887, Liszt was already dead. Why call it a Liszt organ? Did he have an earlier model? Why not play Liszt's music on a Liszt organ? I didn't hear anything in part 1 or 2. A snipet of the Magnificat from the Dante Symphony would have been nice.

Franz Liszt authorized Mason & Hamlin to make special model organs that had features not found in other organs. I believe they started making them in the 1860's and continued until WW 1.
