This Is very unusual and I admit, not to everyone's liking, but I thought it may interest Derek in his quest for 'birdsong' on a pinned barrel.

Hi Kippers,
These sirinettes when they were made were a very cheap small barrel organ, this is just the thing that i am looking for thank you,i think some were made to imitate bird song to teach caged canaries to sing,
Sometime soon i will pin the original barrel,with just a small section and see what happens but i must finish the project that i am working on first, i will email you for further information.
after playing the clip a few times i think tune No1 is Bonny Dundee
and tune No2 is For he's a jolly good fellow
As for the rest i have no idea!!
