hand organ
A hand organ is a type of musical instrument that produces sound by air being directed through pipes or reeds by the mechanical action of hand-cranked bellows. Often portable, these instruments were traditionally used by street performers and can also be configured to play pre-programmed music via a built-in mechanism. Examples of hand organs include barrel organs, street organs, and hurdy-gurdies.
