Historical Video: Alessandro Mugnoz Demonstrates the Harmoniflute - Italyby Harley Jones |
| Alessandro Mugnoz performs the first part of the "Notturnino" for harp and harmoniflute, composed by the distinguished teacher and composer Gaetano Nava (1802 - 1875) in the second half of the nineteenth century (Ricordi Editions, 1861). The harmoniflute, keyboard, bellows and free reeds instrument, is one of the nineteenth-century precursors of the current accordion. It can be considered almost a free reed (medieval) carrier organ of the century. 19th, halfway between the harmonium and the accordéon. Today unfortunately no longer in use, many of its features have been inherited from the so-called Indian Harmonium. The video was made on 26 September 2019 at the civic library of Castelfidardo. The instrument used is a harmoniflute Mayer-Marix, kept at the Accordion Museum Castelfidardo, Italy. View other historic videos on the youtube channel of Alessandro Mugnoz |
