Turkish March with Janizary pedal
on: March 13, 2008, 01:11:33 AM
Any one has ever heard this played on a fortepiano with Janizary pedal?  I am really curious after hearing some Dussek with it that totally sounded fun.
Money does not make happiness, but it can buy you a piano.  :)

You may simulate that by simply putting paper sheets between the strings of a normal piano, that makes a similar effect. :D

It's a thing like an organ stop or register which simulates the sound of a Janizary percussion with drums and bells.

Ah, I see. Something like that might be on youtube. People do like to play around with Alla Turca. In order to get an idea, you could play it on a keyboard with a suitable sound.
