Dear list, Met a person today who said they have a barrel piano. No keys, but does have strings and some type of action that is activated by turning a crank which turns a barrel which has metal tines that strikes the action and makes it play. Also has some bells or chimes as well. Anyone ever seen or heard of such a thing? I have not experienced it yet, but have been given an open door to come and visit it. Maybe this weekend I'll do that. Ought to be a very unique moment in my travels. Keith A. McGavern kam544@ionet.net Registered Piano Technician Oklahoma Chapter 731 Piano Technicians Guild USA
