The world famous Musee des Arts et Metiers (alias Musee National des
Techniques) is closed for renovation for several years, but it has a good
server on Internet (mostly in French ; some summaries of the articles
published in the museum Journal are in English). I advise you strongly to
explore it on:

    http://www.cnam.fr/museum/

I precise that I am not a member of the staff, so my advice is independent
from any pressure ! You will discover on this server several automatic
musical instruments listed, amidst them is the famous "Joueuse de
Tympanon", by Kintzing and Roentgen, bought by Marie-Antoinette, with a
photograph of the android, and even a video you can import on your machine
(6 Mo).
