• many more melodies correctly
• correct harmonies and chords
• movements through different Major and Minor keys.

A musical scale comparison between our tiny HT3 and a large 52 key Dutch Street Organ will aptly demonstrate the musical capabilities of the Excelsior.

As you can hear in our RealAudio clips, the musical capabilities of the HT3 are wide-ranging.  The wind pressure is quite low, generated by four bellows and stored in a larger reservoir.

Very easy cranking, combined with an extremely quick and responsive action, makes playing an Excelsior organ a delight for its owner and for any audience!

If you have RealPlayer G2 you can listen to the Excelsior by clicking on the music clips below.  You can download your free copy of RealPlayer here.

We are responsible for the design and construction of every part of the instrument, even including the electronic circuitry and electro-magnetically powered air valves.

The battery/charger pack is the only bought-in finished item.

All music is arranged by us in Huddersfield.

Because we produce so much ourselves we can be sure that the very highest levels of quality are maintained. 

Each EPROM can store up to 30 tunes.

It is about 2 X 1½ inches and is simply plugged in under the small case lid.

A tune list is supplied with each EPROM  and any tune can easily be selected by entering a three digit code.

The organ can play a single selected tune or play automatically through all the tunes on that EPROM.

Extra tunes can be ordered and sent through the post.

At present we have a list of over 120 tunes and more tunes are being produced every month.

• The Excelsior has simple, rugged circuitry which can operate for many hours on a single battery charge.
• The winding handle is adjustable in its rotating radius and is easily unscrewed for transporting.  The back of the organ can rest happily on a car seat or in the boot.
• Cut outs in the front and back of the case show off the handsomely made Pearwood melody pipes and the veneered Accompaniment pipes.
• The mechanical parts of the organ are manufactured from stainless steel, phenolic and Igidur, giving total freedom from corrosion over many years of usage.
• If you have bought an organ with a painted case, you can trade the case in against a veneered at a later date.
• Broken carvings can be replaced at very short notice.
• If you have a computer music sequencing (MIDI) programme you can have your own arrangements put onto an EPROM.
• To play the organ simply plug the lead into the battery/charger unit, turn the handle and switch to play!
