Hi everyone. I took my name from one of my favourite radio 2 programmes.
I would like to mention two temporary exhibitions before they end.
ROYAL MUSIC MACHINES runs until 30th July at the
National Museum from Music Box to Street Organ in Utrecht.
This is a stunning collection sourced from International museums to celebrate the museums 50th anniversary.
Many of the exhibits are demonstrated on a guided tour.
The other exhibition is at MUSIKAUTOMATEN at Seewen in Switzerland.
Until 22nd October they are hosting an exhibition of automata, most of which are demonstrated.
Please be aware that during these exhibitions most of the large organs are NOT played.
Checkout their websites : --

Good Luck.
Duncan. |
