From The Hermès Fall-Winter 1996/97 Seasonal Scarf Booklet: There is a paradox in producing a melody, something natural, by purely mechanical means. And yet a very real poetry issues from these orchestral trumpets, from these bellows-driven warblers, from these mechanical organs with their wooden reeds. Man intervenes merely to turn the handle of the barrel-organ, which puts rhythm into the heels of the city dweller and melancholy into the souls of the sensitive.
