A music roll is a type of medium used for automatic player pianos and similar instruments to reproduce music. It consists of a long strip of paper, usually rolled up, that has perforations or holes arranged in a specific pattern. When the roll is fed into a player piano, a mechanism detects the holes and activates corresponding piano keys, allowing the instrument to play the music encoded on the roll automatically.
