COMPLETE SET OF FIVE...For the
first time ever, Stevens Magic is proud to offer you exclusively, a
set of five music boxes playing the music performed by Robert-Houdin’s
magic “Soirees” in the mid-19th Century. These original tunes have
been transposed into crystal-clear mechanical music. The “Quadrilles
Fantastiques” were piano themes performed during Robert-Houdin’s
magic show. Each of the five boxes plays a different piano theme used
by Robert-Houdin himself! Collectors and magicians alike will be
enthralled by this timeless, elegant and mystical collection. Each
complete collection comes with a crystal case, poster and
documentation. Don’t miss out on this rare opportunity to get what
is sure to be a collector’s item. Thanks to our friend, Georges
Proust (Academe de Magie), Jean-Luc Muller and Philippe Sayous PLEASE
NOTE: The music boxes are constructed in Paris, hand assembled by some
of the finest crafters in the art of music boxes, clockwork and
automata. Because of this, the manufacturer is unable to meet large
demands. Nonetheless, the maker wants this line to be accessible to
the magic community in such a manner that it can be achieved
financially, but still be worthy of the memory of a great magician.
The music featured on these timeless boxes includes the following: 1.
Antonia Diavolo—considered as Robert-Houdin’s mechanical
masterpiece. 2. The “Pastry-Cook of the Palais-Royal”. 3. The
“Magic Portfolio” or “Carton Fantasique” 4. La Suspension -
Eugene 5. L’Oranger
