Draaiorgel is a traditional music genre centered around the street organ, a large mechanical instrument capable of producing rich, orchestral sounds through punched card technology or barrel mechanisms. Originating in Western Europe, particularly the Netherlands and Belgium, draaiorgels are known for their vibrant, lively tunes that capture the essence of community festivities and street life. These instruments often feature intricately decorated facades and can perform a wide repertoire, from classical pieces to folk melodies. Their music evokes nostalgia and cultural heritage, as exemplified by renowned artists like De Schuyt and Draaiorgel Theadora, who have helped keep the genre alive with both traditional tunes and innovative adaptations.
