Tune Description

The music that this musical movement produces is golden. It sounds like a Swiss music box!

I would have to say this musical movement is by far the best of all the 72-note movements Sankyo has produced to date.

“The Trout” is a theme with variations, in 3 parts. The musical arrangement just plain sparkles.

In part one, the general theme is heard, without much decoration.

The second part is a variation on the theme heard in part one, however the music becomes more decorated.

Part three is very decorated indeed. The music sounds like a waterfall, a spring shower or a fountain.

The music is overflowing with life. I can’t say enough about how great this movement really is. Believe me, it is a masterpiece.

72 Note Movement

This kind of Nidec/Sankyo movement plays two or three tunes (or parts) and is made in Japan. Playing time is usually about 6 minutes. There are 72 notes (or "teeth") on the comb. There is a lot of bass sound in the comb, and the arrangements are usually very spectacular in nature. Our in-house comb machine and Rick's expertise result in Bell-Like Tuning unrivalled in new movements for decades.
