A street organ, also known as a fairground organ or mechanical organ, is a type of mechanical musical instrument that plays music automatically. Traditionally, street organs are often associated with outdoor performances and were commonly found at fairs, parks, and other public gatherings. These instruments are typically powered by a hand-cranked mechanism or a motor and use a series of wooden pipes, metal reeds, or other sound-producing elements to create music.
