I'm *very* much enjoying the Darreg web pages, but here is a funny
one to us now living in the age of MIDI:

Darreg:
Of all the forces of nature, electricity is the most refined and
subtle; we may thus expect electronic musical instruments to express
musical feeling much more perfectly than can ever be done with our
present mechanico-acoustical instruments (brass, strings, piano,
woodwinds, drums, &c.). Those composers, arrangers, conductors, and
performers who employ electronic musical instruments will attain
their ideals more closely.
