====== Home ====== {{ http://www.organettehouse.com/images/orguinette.jpg}} **Welcome** to **The Organette Music Repository**, where you'll find information on music for **all organettes**. Organettes are a small hand-cranked reed organ, usually designed for tabletop use. Popular from the 1870s through the early 1900s, hundreds of models were manufactured, playing thousands of tunes. Hymns, popular music, classical--they're all available as you turn the crank. {{http://www.organettehouse.com/images/mandolina.jpg }}Now, over a hunderd years later, many of the music rolls, sheets, discs, or rollers have begun to deteriorate. It is the goal of **The Organette Music Repository** to preserve that music for the enjoyment of everyone, while it can still be researched, scanned and duplicated. //**We need your help!**// This project will succeed because people like //you// are willing to share a bit of information and music, contributing to an effort which benefits everyone. Please **[[/home?do=login|Log In]]** and join the project, making **The Organette Music Repository** a success!((P.S. We've tried to make adding information as easy as possible, but if you're unable to do so for **any reason**, please contact the Administrator. ([[todd@rollerorgans.com]]) There are volunteer editors who can add your music information from other formats--even printed lists. //Don't give up!//)) == == *[[:instruments:]] *[[:keys:]] *[[:formats:]] *[[:spacing:]] *[[:scales:]] *[[patents:]]
