Description: It's plain that the innocent little mechanical music box fascinated more than a few composers, famous and obscure. These pieces range from pieces for children to witty takes on broken or off-key music boxes and a couple capture the mechanical sounds of the device quite nicely. You may not want to listen to all 32 in a row though... Dario Müller (piano).
