MUSIC BOX CLASSICAL MOMENTS
The Porter Twin Disc Music Box

Prior to the invention of the phonograph, mechanical music was supplied only through musicboxes of various types from the tiny table top toys and automata, to the magnificent console polyphons and symphonions from Europe. The Porter Music Box Company of Randolph, Vermont, manufactures a range of beautiful machines, which are heard on this range of CDs. Here the wonderful resonant sound is displayed in a programme of light classical selections.
