Danmarks eneste Kinoorgel

This is primarily of concern for the Danish viewers and I am NOT playing the organ in this video.

There are only one real theatre organ in Denmark. It belongs to a Mr. Anton Stormlund who has a collection of electric organs, telegraphs, model steam engines, and lots of other things. Occationally he opens his collection for the general public and it was on one of these occations that I made this video. And with his permission I now post the music and pictures from this visit.

Sorry about the sound quality. It was recorded using only my little digital camera and this is as good as it gets...

Is this a Wurlitzer? Skinner (who made theatre pipe organs in Europe)? It plays very nice.

@koasterkav - It's a British "Christie" organ made by Hill & Norman and Beard Ltd.

interesting because it is your video, and emcamtò music, pictures, very good job

I was astonished by the large number of devices that have

but the organs are still used in Denmark theater?

[organfairy]

No. The last theatre organ we had in a movie palace was torn down in 1960. This one is in a private collection and was originally installed in Scotland.

waw, jeg trode kun jeg sjulle rejse till usa for at se dem, er det et sted åbent for alle

eller privat?, men har han også sådan nogle mekaniske orgler?

[organfairy]

Det er en privat samling, men han arrangerer rundvisning og små koncerter for foreninger og andre forsamlinger, men ikke for enkelte personer. Han har dog en tradition for at arrangere en bustur derud i forbindelse med Vejle Dampskibsfestival hvert andet år. Så hvis han gør det igen til sommer, så har du chancen der.

Han har ikke mekaniske orgler, men jeg så til gengæld et på havnen til festivalen sidste gang.
