Music Box Study No. 5
Check out this amazing study of the larger DIY paper-punch music box by Ben Gerstein. Not only is the piece impressive, but it looks like quite a workout!
From the YouTube description:
Music I punched for the Teanola paper strip music box, identical to the Kikkerland model used in Studies I-IV but twice the size. The mechanism covers 20 notes of the C major scale.
Hiya,
ReplyDeleteI got a DIY music box as well and am looking for tunes to punch, but i can't seem to find them.
Maybe you have any suggestions??
Kind regards, angelique
