You can hear the heroic Triumphal March from Guiseppe Verdi's opera Aida in a nostalgic way with this mechanical music box. The encouraging melody proclaiming victory is known all over the world and is just as popular at weddings and sporting events as it is in films and advertising.

Yet the Triumphal March or Grand March is quite old and was composed at the end of the 19th century by Guiseppe Verdi, who was commissioned to write an Egyptian opera which he called Aida. The tragic love story of the Ethiopian princess Aida and the Egyptian army commander is fictitiously set in the time of the pharaohs and was first performed in Cairo in 1871.

You can amplify the powerful melody by placing the small music box - with or without its informative packaging - on a larger resonating body and playing it. This can be a table, chair, shelf or even a cajon.
