Charivari (French) = noisy, scornful and generally irritating music, maybe from late Latin 'Carivaria' - headache). During the reign of Franch king Louis-Philippe "Le Charivari" was a satirical magazine with Daumier as its most known contributor - do check that man! His satire is still as razor sharp as ever!
