Fan Art had no pictures of calliopes. If you've never seen one, you should google them because they are quite beautiful. The calliope, invented in the mid 19th Century,
is also known as a steam organ, and its series of whistles
looks much like a small version of a church pipe organ. Calliopes were often featured in circuses and on steamboats. The music you usually hear on a carousel is calliope music.
Calliope is pronounced in four syllables ka LIE oh PEE
At Youtube you can hear and see great calliope music by typing in Calliope Music.
