I remember hearing one of these music boxes in person at a store while Christmas shopping @ the old Crossroads Mall in downtown SaltLakeCity when I was young. I remember it was so beautiful in person that I wanted to cry. Thanks for posting.
@amiedetherese Thanks for the nice comments! Yes, the highest notes on a music box disc are nearest the outer edge while the bass notes are nearest the center of the disc.
Doug, "Silent Night" sounds so graceful on your music box. The notes of the song leave a trail of sparkling sound; I would guess that this is the music box equivalent of accompaniment.
@EdisonSquirrel Thanks so much, Rocky. That's most of the reason why I enjoy disc music boxes so much is that lovely resonating sound that is heard after the teeth are struck. Your comments are always appreciated.
I'm thrilled. This is what my soul needed.

Very nice! Are the perforations on the disk for the high notes always near the outer edge?

Full notes, so to speak, on those disks....as some are not so well done. Thanks. God bless.
