Das Salzburger Glockenspiel

January 30, 2007

In case you wonder about the predecessor of the music box, or the current so-called glockenspiel used in marching bands and orchestras, BibliOdyssey unearthed this engraving of the Salzburg glockenspiel by Christoph Lederwasch from the University of Salzburg’s Special Collections.

Dear Mr Bourland,
I’m a student of the university of applied sciences in Salzburg, and at the moment I’m doing a project about the Glockenspiel of Salzburg. Just wanted to ask if I could you this image from your blog for my project. Thanks a lot.

Sincerely,

Laura Berg
