Musicians understand

What a crazy instrument, never seen this before. Crazy that Mozart wrote music specifically for it in the 1700s

They actually have one at the Fort Collins Museum of Discovery! It's behind a display case in the music area. 🎶

This is a cool gadget!

I'm such a sucker for shit like this. I fucking love niche instruments!!

How cool would it have been way way back in the day to get an analog music box?! Talk about magical. ✨️

I imagine this is what a kaleidoscope would sound like if it made noise.

Fascinating, it's like a primitive vinyl record or CD

Every musician knows how it be. When shit goes wrong you just run with it and keep going. Do it confidently enough and most the crowd won't even know. While the musicians in the crowd who can tell, likely will just be like, "hehe nice."
