The march is not Old Comrades by Carl Teike! It's "Hoch Heidecksburg" (english title "The Watch Tower") by Rudolph Herzer.

@max9046 Where did you get it? how much was it?
-
Very. Antique organs will run you 10-20,000 dollars. Reproductions probably would cost less, and require much less maintenance because they don't have perishable leather parts like the originals.

Wow! I am so impressed with this. Sounds like a great hobby to get into. Is it expensive? How does one get started?
-
What an incredibly beautiful instrument. Thank you so much for sharing it!

Such a beautiful sound. The first time I ever heard a band organ was while riding a carousel at Boardwalk and Baseball at(aka Circus World) down here in Haines City, FL. Sadly, the park is nolonger here.

Thanks for the nice comment. This Band Organ spent quite a few years on a Carousel in the Los Angeles/Long Beach area. I too love the sound and play it most every day.

Thanks for the comments. The flageolets are turned off in that video. Even with glass covering the front opening, it's still very loud inside, so I usually turn off one of the higher ranks.
Also, I'm going to try another Mic. That recording used the internal - which muddies the drum sounds and leaves out the highs.
