Very interesting. In France this song was popular under the title of "La danse des Canards" (the ducks dance)
How many stop and note has your barrel organ? Does it work with punched paper roll or with card book?
Due to the depression pump, I guess the roller frame read roll paper
In France the most common models are a 27/29 notes / 1 flute or reed stop (sometimes both) model with card book or 20 notes / 1 reed stop with paper roll or card book but the frame works always under pressure wind

now all you need is about 12 little monkeys doing the chicken dance around you in a circle

Thats awesome. You can probably download this tune's sheet music free from google images. Or just learn it by ear, doesn't seem too hard to learn.
I must say I want one of these now. Just hook it up to a motor and you're good to go :D

This organ has 26 notes and 5 stops. Stopped flute, stopped flute celeste, piccolo, open flute, and violin. It uses a paper roll. I built it myself from John Smith's plans. It took about one year to build.

This organ sounds very sweet. Well done, for your the work, and hours taken for you making this possible, so organ lovers, like myself can listen, to this lovely little instrument :)

Thanks very much. Glad you like it. It took me about a year to build this organ. I'm very happy with the way it turned out. Bob
