Description: METRO-GNOME #5136 (January, 1991) The Metro-Gnome works inside his metronome, making the pendulum tick to beat time for music students. You can see that the Metro-Gnome has an ear for music. He may be peeking out to find the child who’s supposed to be practicing his piano lessons, or maybe he’s looking for his Woodspirit friend Beethoven. The metronome was patented in 1816 by Johann Maelzel of Germany. To this antique metronome I have added profiles of three of the world’s greatest composers. There are three coins a French coin for Chopin, a German deutchmark for Bach, and an Austrian coin for Mozart. Even though he’s marking time, the Metro-Gnome knows that their music is timeless. - Dr. Thomas F.
