This musical skeleton clock, named “Haydn in Plain Sight”, plays a melody from the Haydn “Clock Symphony” each hour, followed by the hour strike. The hammers strike tuned aluminum chime rods, and the clock features a unique damper system which provides crisp articulation for each note — eighth, quarter and half notes ring exactly as long as the musical notation specifies, and then are stopped. An article on the clock’s creation can be found in the November/December 2015 Bulletin (No. 418).

The Phoenix Project was initiated to reconstruct this historic Twiss tallcase clock owned by Esmond Butler, secretary to six Canadian governors general. The original clock was ravaged by fire, leaving only a burned movement and weights. The movement restoration was described in the Class 3 entry and the first place dial creation in the Class 13 entry. The clock case work included fabricating and installing upper case moldings on which the new hood would sit as well as the door, coiled wire hinges, an antique lock, key, and bezel. The clock works well and keeps good time.
