One of the earliest "recordings" in music history, the 225 year old "Joseph Haydn Organ". What does it tell? What can we learn from it? Do we hear a true version of how Haydn performed his music? Since the story goes that Haydn was in the room when this organ played, and the chances are high he had influence in the programming of the cylinder.
In this video, we will listen to the Haydn Niemecz mechanical organ, preserved in Utrecht, in the famous museum 'Museum Speelklok' (link below), where you'll find one of the largest historical collections of automatic musical machines plus decades of experience and knowledge.
I'm using fragments of a video originally uploaded by Martin Molin, on his channel Wintergatan, documenting the intriguing journey of a musician that builts his own (fascinating to say the least) musical machine, called the Marble Machine X. That channel will not disappoint, I can promise you that (link below).
