Tune is "Titina" ... The beautiful, fully restored 1905 Dentzel menagerie carousel at Ontario Beach Park, Rochester, New York (its original location), with its Stinson 165 band organ, built in 1987 and now playing MIDI disks of Wurlitzer 165 rolls. On the day I recorded this, all the organ's registers were playing (the trombone, trumpet and forte registers are almost always switched off on the side panel). This tune is "Titina" (Leo Daniderff) from roll 6630. These videos don't do justice to the full organ, but they give you some idea of how it sounds.
