Yes and the rarest musical instrument in the world with Chris Dale – 503

Produced by Wayne Hall and Jeffrey Crecelius <br /><br /><br /><br />This week we decided to go really deeply into the technical weeds of Yes and look at an instrument which appears on Tormato and not very many other places in the musical universe. We are joined by the remarkable Chris Dale who has devoted many years of his life to collecting and renovating this, rarest of all musical instruments, the Birotron. We discuss what Rick Wakeman had to do with this fascinating story, what the Birotron is and why it was never put into production despite 1000 musicians wanting to buy one.<br /><br /><br /><br />It’s another deeply hidden part of the Yesstory and one which Mark and I enjoyed finding out about enormously. I hope you also find it an interesting diversion.<br /><br /><br /><br />* What is a Birotron?* Where can you hear one?* Why is it the rarest musical instrument in the world?<br /><br /><br /><br />Listen to the episode and let us know what you think!<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Help Save The Birotron Facebook page<br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://www.facebook.com/birotron/" rel="noopener">https://www.facebook.com/birotron/</a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://youtu.be/URR7l-uI6JA" rel="noopener">https://youtu.be/URR7l-uI6JA</a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />An article on the Birotron<br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://musicalduffer.wordpress.com/2013/04/02/urmusik-2-steampunk-scooby-doo-and-the-birotron/?fbclid=IwAR1-lBWYz_qDU68JMdob4xznbqoxu7nhm007sflLnDLvwwUFCCIJ4JM3Xh8" rel="noopener">https://musicalduffer.wordpress.com/2013/04/02/urmusik-2-steampunk-scooby-doo-and-the-birotron/?fbclid=IwAR1-lBWYz_qDU68JMdob4xznbqoxu7nhm007sflLnDLvwwUFCCIJ4JM3Xh8</a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Join us as a Patron!<br /><br /><br /><br />If you would like to support the Yes Music Podcast financially and also have access to exclusive activity and opportunities, there is a special page you can use to sign up and 2020 is the time to join us:<br /><br /><br /><
