I recall telecasts of Boston Pops concerts with Fiedler conducting that
work. Two soloists would stand at the front of the stage. I believe
one of the percussionists was at the 'keyboard' with a huge cigar in his
mouth. Another stood by with a stick and what looked like sandpaper on
a box. Striking the box with the stick made the carriage return sound.
It was usually a big hit.
