A Drehorgel, or a barrel organ in English, is a mechanical musical instrument consisting of bellows and one or more pipes in a highly decorated wooden case. The principle is the same as a pipe organ, but instead of having an organist, the barrel organ is activated by a rotating crank or clockwork driven by weights. By adding on to the basic principle, I have decided to make a modern drehorgel that is made up of electronics. | A Drehorgel, or a barrel organ in English, is a mechanical musical instrument consisting of bellows and one or more pipes in a highly decorated wooden case.
