2. Manuscript of Cherubini's Air pour le Panharmonicon

The Panharmonicon was a mechanical instrument capable of imitating the sounds of a full military band, including woodwinds, brass instruments, and percussion. Maelzel seems to have built his first Panharmonicon around 1805, displaying it first in Vienna and then in Paris, where the composer Luigi Cherubini composed an original piece for the instrument. The manuscript score of Cherubini's Air pour le Panharmonicon, dated 1806, is now preserved in the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin:  https://digital.staatsbibliothek-berlin.de/werkansicht/?PPN=PPN795372345
