Answer 1

A man worked in a factory producing music boxes. Each Saturday he took his little girl to the factory. The girl enjoyed the attention of the people working at the

assembly line as they would come up to talk her. At the end of the day she was always presented with a small music box.

Answer 2

Answer:

A small music box may have played music that many of you have heard or heard. which is diverse in form The majority of music boxes come in two varieties: a cylindrical music box and a disc type. They can be made of wood, ceramic, resin, or any combination of these materials. Around the comb's teeth, there is something that vibrates and emits sound called a vibration plate. resulting in the variety of musical timbres that we have heard

Explanation:

• It is impossible to identify the person or time who invented the music box mechanism in Europe. Instead, over time, people experimented with various independent components that eventually came together to create the music mechanism as we know it. A key development was the creation of a cylinder with pins operating cams to control bell ringing in Flanders as early as the 15th century. However, it is widely acknowledged that the first "music(al) comb" was actually a device that Swiss clockmaker Antoine Favre used in 1796 that was built into watches, snuff boxes, and other items.
• Although metal discs were initially used in music boxes, the switch to cylinders occurred very early in the 19th century, and this is still the preferred method for the majority of music boxes and musical toys in this collection. Since the music box was developed between the beginning of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, it ruled as the preferred mechanical music for just over a century, in a variety of forms. Due to their superior and louder music, gramophones and mechanical pianos displaced other instruments by the early 20th century. They are also easier to programme.
• Music boxes switched from using cylinders to metal discs in the 1880s, first in Germany, improving the mechanical music's qualities. The use of wooden or hardboard "books" in street organs was another innovation. Some music boxes were created using only bells or a bell and comb combination. The complexity and size of music boxes increased. Another innovation involved using a modified wind instrument and a bellow or bellows to create the sound of a bird "singing." The first singing bird mechanism was created in Switzerland in 1780, and it was later improved in Paris, France, in 1848.
• The playing time could be increased by using more than one spring, sometimes for up to an hour. Also, more than one song could be played on the same comb in the box by tilting the cylinder at the conclusion of a song and accessing a different set of pins. And a later development, made especially for larger cylinders/boxes in the 1860s, allowed users to exchange cylinders, each of which played a different melody on the same comb.
• All of these mechanical music boxes were prohibitively expensive for the general populace, so they were only available to the upper classes. However, coin-operated machines were developed and installed in public locations, such as train stations, for the entertainment of the general public.
