Monthly meeting

  • Spa Hotel Lucan Lucan, Co Dublin Ireland (map)

Mechanical music from musical watches to barrel organs and pianolas

This wide-ranging talk will demonstrate how clever machines produced beautiful music before the phonograph was invented.  It will also suggest the most satisfying types to acquire, depending on one’s budget. The speaker is David Boles, our very own renowned and distinguished collector and horologist. At the Spa Hotel, Lucan as usual. Below: a repeating watch signed Breguet & Fils.
