Video duration: 387 seconds Heilbuth built pipe organs out of various bits and pieces. He composed original waltzes and polkas for his organs, which played his tunes via paper rolls. Here, we see his band organ (orchestrion) playing his arrangements of "Minuit Polka" Op.168 (Emil Waldteufel) and "Never On A Sunday" (Manos Hadjidakis, Billy Towne) . Recorded by me in Heilbuth's San Francisco home, March 19, 1994 Related: composer, eccentric, heilbuth, lavey, orchestrion, organist, outsider |
