Harry Reser's "Lollipops" on the Banjo-Orchestra 

Absolutely fantastic. They didn’t have digital technology but they invented things like this that blow digital away.

Anyone can put together digital music, but it takes a level of genius to put together one of these machines!

It took a genius to build these machines. Very enjoyable. Thanks for posting.

Amazing machine! It's beautifully restored, tuned perfectly and looks amazing with the banjo in the center of that large cabinet. Sounds like it had years of banjo lessons for it to play that good. Lol Thanks for the fun.

This song definitely puts a smile on your face ❤

That has put a huge smile on my face.. and now I'm going to play it again! Thank you!

What a wonderful machine! And it plays beautifully, too! 🪕🎶😀

These machines are just awesome 😎

I need one of that as alarm clock in my bedroom, so I wake up happy and not lazy as usual..

Beyond belief! Who planned this all out, put it together and then restored it? WOW.

This is incredible! Thanks for sharing!!!

OMG !! Who wouldn't want this for Christmas ! amazing ! Please post more songs, Cheers Dave !

That was fantastic! I have seen several similar mechanical orchestras before, but never one featuring the banjo -- really, really neat!!!

What a remarkable machine and such a great arrangement of a great tune!!😊

Das ist der hammer bitte noch viellll mehr abba lieder!!! Wie das orginal sie brauchten dich fürs song schreiben! Ich und mein mann sind mega begeistert!!!! Weiter so!!!!!❤❤❤

If you see the sustaining pedal pneumatic working repeatedly, very briefly without sustaining the piano notes, as it does following time 2:19, it's because the pedal is teed to the piano accent expression device as in a Weber Maesto orchestrion. That provides one more musical function without using a separate tracker bar hole.

Bravo! Simply wonderul! You couldn't know how much joy this brings me!

OUTSTANDING Performance !

I am not sure of what I just witnessed. But I LIKE IT! What a treat. The engineer who designed this machine is beyond belief. Probably also designed the TR3b. LOL Great video Thank you.

Such beautiful wood to hold such a wonderful sounding instrument.

This tune is proof that a banjo can be used for more than bluegrass.

I love it! Mechanical masterpiece!

Just amazing! How lovely…

Probably the best orchestrion I have heard. I think the combo of instruments resembling a pick up jazz trio is fantastic being able to deliver this tempo. The tune is also fantastic and so redolently of its time. I can also see these remaining popular until the phonograph was able to provide so full a sound.

You'd almost think that Harry Reeser was playing that banjo.

😃💓😍💓🤩. How aMAAAZing can something get??? Now I WANT ONE!!!!!😸

This is so neat. Love it!

Fantastic 👌

sounds like the stuff I play in my hobby station public domain radio on SHOUTcast which i renamed WKBS radio lol.

Brilliant 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼😄

Amazing!!

Sounds, Great 🎉

WoW!!!

Trop fort !

Fantastic

Genius......

Amazing

Nice instrument !

they have a similar machine at House on the Rock, sadly it needs maintenance, it would be super cool to hear it work as well as this machine!

Those banjo picks are pretty crazy. Can it do Foggy Mountain Breakdown?

I need it

Top of cool. can we get an Ida, sweet as apple cider orchestration please?

Reminds me of squarepusher music for robots

Does each machine play one tune or were they programmable somehow?

Huh there’s a Cremona orchestrion on the left side

The song almost sounds like The Charlston a bit

Steve Martin would approve.

I like this orchestrion I would try to build it on ROBLOX

MIDI of 1800s)

Video is a bit "Blair Witch" but great instrument

The one dislike must be Willy Wonka's dad.

Love your videos BUT: please know that fast pans and tilts ruin your content. I've been a videographer for over 50 years and the first lesson to a camera person is SLOW. If you can't invest in a decent stabilizer, at least make up for it by slowing things down.
