The Decap inspires its listeners to spontaneously break into dance. Click the image for an enlarged version.

The "Decap" Belgian Dance Organ, one of the few in existence today, was found in Sint-Niklaas, Belgium. This instrument was considered "portable' back in its heyday. It would be set up and moved from dance hall to dance hall every six months!

Similar to a player piano, this marvelous machine plays cardboard "book music." The Decap measures 12 feet tall and 24 feet long and features 535 pipes, 2 accordians, 2 saxophones, a snare drum, bass drum, woodblock, tempo block, cymbals and a high hat! It practically replaces the need for an orchestra...and the sound is deliciously marvelous.
