Living in an era with pre-recorded music everywhere, it's hard for us to imagine how remarkable this must have seemed in its time. The performance of music beyond the capabilities of the vast majority of people, and in your own home. It must have seemed like magic.
I remember seeing an advert for houses that did not have electricity that they could purchase a waterfall dynamo generator for electric reproducing pianos. They were housed in what looked like a very elegant clothes wardrobe. I wonder if any of these exist in the world ?.
