Even in 1979, the interest in music technology was huge. This video, The New Sound Of Music is a BCC history documentary from the year 1979. This video is about the development of recorded music from the first barrel organs, pianolas, the phonograph, the magnetic tape recorder and the concepts of electronic music development. In addition, EMS Synthesizers and equipment were introduced in this film. This film also introduces a invention of a robot music that several instruments are played at the same time by using the holes on the paper. It is fascinating to see the organ making sound, as the music page is rolled. Even though it does not look fancy as these days' music technology equipment, at least it gives me the notion of fun that can be found in music technology. Isn't the piano that is played without a performer interesting? I recommend you to watch this video!
