Welcome to our homepage. We are an informal group of around 60 members that meet 3 or 4 times a year to discuss and trade items and ideas about automatic musical instruments. Our goal is to promote interest in preserving these wonderful machines.Guests are always welcome!
 

 

 

Meeting Schedule for the rest of 2008: 


Saturday, September 27, 2 PM.  Blaine WA

  At the home of Don Stagg,  Don has one of the most remarkable collections of musical instruments in thePacific Northwest.  His living room alone holds two pipe organs and five grand pianos.  Elsewhere in the house, there are 22 other organs (mostly reed organs) and two other grand pianos including a Heintzman  with a Welte-Mignon player action.    


Saturday, December 6, 2 PM.  Seattle WA

 At Kenyon Hall, 7904 35th Avenue SW, Seattle (206) 937-3613.  While many of us have been to Kenyon Hall for various events, we have never had a meeting there.  This meeting has been set up with Lou Magor and Tom Roughton who are board members of this fine entertainment center.  The hall features a Wurlitzer pipe organ, a Chickering grand piano and a Star orchestrion that almost works.  We are working on arrangement for live music at the hall, some of which may be along with a silent film.  We will do a gift exchange if we can work it in with all the other fun!
