Disclosed is a magnetic tape cassette handling apparatus which is compact and reliable and which handles cassettes gently and firmly. The handling apparatus includes (a) a pusher member for gently moving a cassette forwardly into a cassette receiving location, and (b) clamping members for firmly clamping a cassette while moving the cassette rearwardly out of the cassette receiving location. The cassette handling apparatus is preferably located in a central opening of a cassette storage ferris wheel structure which is mounted adjacent to a magnetic tape recorder/player. Thus, the cassette handling apparatus loads and unloads a cassette from the ferris wheel structure into and out of the magnetic tape recorder/player.
