HaarlemUpright Piano and Reed Organ ca. 1835 () American This unusual instrument is both an upright piano and a reed organ. Both upright pianos and reed organs were popular in homes and this instrument captures the sounds of both. The upper body contains the soundboard and strings, along with the long stickers used in upright grand pianos. The lower body contains the pipes along with the bellows for the organ. There are five pedals that originally woudl have operated the dampers, provided for a bassoon stop in the bass, a mute sound, a drum, and a pedal that silenced the piano so that only the reed organ could be heard. There is also a curved pedal at the right for the right foot to pump the bellows for the reed organ.Technical description:Vertical rectangular case of mahogany and mahogany veneer on 4 claw-ball feet with 2 turned and reed pillars (missing) supporting the keyboard, and 1 turned, painted pillar at either side of the case front above the keyboard; framed glass panels reveal thePresenting Queen Anne ensemble , Sinks, Tichnor Brothers Collection, postcards of the United StatesMobile Exhibit Introduces American Hand Tools to European Public.
