Laterna

The laterna is a barrel piano which is indeed a little portable piano with an action activated by a wooden cylinder which is pinned with several thousands little nails; every nail being a musical note.

Mostly forgotten in the west as it was replaced by disc operated music boxes and player pianos, it was the main music reproducing instrument in Greece for almost a century until WWII. Therefore it was extremely popular, massively built and greatly adored by Greeks.

You simply need to tune it to hear a lovely traditional Greek melody.
