1.0 out of 5 stars Don't waste your time or money, July 27, 2008

By 

Big John (Satellite Beach, FL USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Magic Music from the Telharmonium (Amazon Instant Video)

If you are interested in how the Telharmonium worked, what it sounded like, or what it looked like then don't waste your time or money. This is a video slide show that chronicles Mr. Thaddeus Cahill's (the inventor) attempt to raise money and sell "electric" music to New York hotels and restuarants. It is nothing but a series of old black & white photos, newspaper clippings and drawings that pan and zoom across the screen. It is accompanied by a cheesy dialog with outlandish effects, and a sound track of questionable origin that is certainly not from a Telharmonium. As someone interested in the technical details of the Telharmonuim I was extremely disappointed.

This review is from: Magic Music from the Telharmonium (Amazon Instant Video)

This was a super subject...saw the name on Comcast Music channel Soundscapes and google it....while waiting for the information to come up I mentioned to my friend that if its electricity sounds (was reading the 1906 review) and said this sounds like the first synthesizer....and I was right...but a hundred plus years ago, even before radio! That is really something.
