Construction

Circular carousel with horses and a fairground organ mounted in the centre.

Other Information

Merry-Go-Rounds have only one type of music, the "Fairground Organ Music", which includes Band Organ variations of "The Blue Danube", "Tales from the Vienna Woods", "Die Regimentskinder Marsch" and "The Poet and Peasant Overture".

These tracks were originally recorded in 1976 by the C.J. Mead Organisation, from a Voigt Model 35 69-Keyless Band Organ at Bressingham Steam Museum, Norfolk. Called the Bressingham Voigt, it remained there for many years, but was eventually sold and now performs in the Netherlands. The record was owned by Chris Sawyer's father, and its tracks were used in both RollerCoaster Tycoon 1 & 2. All of these songs are original arrangements from the Ruth Fair Organ Company. The original LP, called "Music from the Bressingham Voight" occasionally turns up on eBay or other internet auction sites.

The Voigt organ is at the moment in the Netherlands and the owner is an dutch showman, Herman Riddering from Garmerwolde. And it's, as we speak in, a top condition. The Voigt organ has it's own website: http://www.draaivermaak.nl/35er-Voigt-draaiorgel.35ervoigt.0.html
