      You are entirely correct. Cylinder music boxes were first around 1800 and then disc based music boxes were invented in the later 1800s which allowed new songs to be played on a music box machine - similar to a vinyl record. Mechanical music machines using paper sheets or wooden cobs were also available (player pianos, roller organs, etc.). Then gramophones came along and finally record players that played 78 rpm records. Kind regards, Troy Duncan.

    As a classical musician, if I was rich I would love to have one of these in my living room. I do not have the ability of site, but based on the way this sounds online I can hardly imagine how it would sound up close. I have always had a liking for mechanical things like music boxes and clocks, but never have I heard something so melodious in my lifetime.

      @@anukay7854 You can get some antique Swiss cylinder boxes from the 19th century for less than that, even in fairly nice playing condition, depending upon how fancy or rare of a box you get (what type it is). I am not putting down Reuge since they make high quality instruments indeed, but a lot of these old boxes need good homes and it sounds like you're on a budget. So for me that would be the way to go. You can save up for a new Reuge afterwards ;)

    Ah! Wonderful melodies! Pleasant and enjoyable! Some antique wall clocks and bracket clocks played tune on built in music-box mechanisms like this just before or soon after striking the hours on small cup shaped bell or thick and hard coiled wire chime (gong). Nowadays these types of music-boxes and chiming clocks are electronically imitated by some quartz clocks because they contains circuit board of electronically recorded and programmed sound chips connected to speaker. But they can't beat the real chimes and music-boxes like this.

    I was looking at it trying to figure out how it got the 3 songs. The comb "wires" looks so wide. But if you really look, the ends of the comb that get plucked are a tiny point leaving more than enough room for 3 tracks each slightly off to the left or right. But that also must make keeping it aligned properly somewhat of a chore. This thing moves 1/32 of an inch and won't play anything.

      Singing bird boxes I had a beautiful music box I bought 20 some yrs ago in Wisscassot sp? ME. A German or Austrian man had a museum. I went in. And he played his music boxes. I started to cry because they were so beautiful. He ended up selling me a small beautiful one. With two motions. Both my fav Beethoven songs. I guess I was 26? I only paid maybe 500. It was well worth much much more. He was being generous. He showed me many things. He had so many. I divorced my husband and he never gave me the music box. I hear it sits in the basement and collects dust. No one ever plays it ☹️ I even offered to buy it. But while I had it. Boy. It just took me to another world 🤗🤗🤗❤️❤️❤️

    I don't know if I'm missing something or I'm just not comprehending this right, but how are there 3 songs on one cylinder? Like I was watching it and each song seems to be equivalent to the entire cylinder turning around once. So like.... How..... I'm super confused. But regardless, it has a very beautiful case and I love the songs that it has. There is just sonething super charming about music boxes.

    • @troyduncan1969
      @troyduncan1969  5 лет назад

      Excellent question Kaida. The better music boxes have what is referred to as a "shifting cylinder". Each cylinder is actually programmed with multiple songs which are represented by the tiny pins on the cylinder. Some music box cylinders have 18 or more songs programmed onto one cylinder. A snail gear slides the cylinder less than 1mm to the right after a song finishes and then a different set of pins strike the comb teeth representing a new musical arrangement (song). when the last song is played, the cylinder snaps back to point zero to start once again. Make sense?
