Some of "Spanish Flea" (Julius Wechter) played by the concert band organ "Trudy." Recorded at the COAA rally at Olcott Beach, New York, July 31, 2011.
Standing in the middle of Krull Park, one could see several of the visiting organs at once ... hence this video. It should make the most sense when viewed full-screen.
Here's some additional info on the labeled organs...
"De Cornelis Leendert," also called "The Dutch Canadian," was built by the Dutch Book Organ Centre.
"De Waterjuffer" is a small Verbeeck street organ.
"Katie-Sue" is a Gebruder Bruder barrel organ converted to Wurlitzer 165 rolls.
The "Dutch Street Organ" was built by a member from Ohio.
"De Witte" is a 90-key street organ built by Page & Howard.
The Ruth replica is a home-built, 63-keyless organ.
"Trudy" is the home-built concert organ playing here.
And the Wurlitzers 103 and 146-A are, well, a Wurlitzer 103 and a 146-A.
In my slide show video you can see all the band organs that were at the rally, and you can hear some of them in Wurlitzer157's videos.
