Many composers have written pieces with titles like "The Music Box,
La boîte à musique, Die Spieldose."  Janvier Pietrapertosa fils
(= son) composed "La boîte à musique", scherzettino for flute and
triangle (in 1902?).  He was a player of the mandolin and wrote
and arranged more than 200 pieces in the period 1889-1902.

Who can inform me about his biography and the date of his birth and
death?

Thanks,
