"Via Eupen" March 1905 GAVIOLI FAIRGROUND ORGAN

"Via Eupen" March, played on my 89-key G4 Gavioli & Cie FAIRGROUND ORGAN built in 1905. Gavioli No. 9085 plays today exactly as it would have done when it was built, using perforated cardboard read by an pneumatic action controlling air to the 400 pipes. There is also automatic percussion, and a 17 note glockenspiel. This magnificent instrument was installed in James Day's 3-abreast Gallopers in 1920, and was in showmans use with the ride until 1984. Previously owned by Chris Dobbs, I aquired the organ in April 2021, and look forward to touring steam fairs and special events across England and Wales in due course (please contact me if you are interested in hiring it for your event - nick@fairgroundorgan.com) If you're enjoying the music and wish to tip me towards the organ's maintenance and help fund new music for future videos, you can do so at: www.paypal.com/paypalme/jollity
