I doubt the Muppet writers were aware of it, but a 17th century instrument maker built a prototype porcophone, in which a series of trained pigs were placed so that a keyboard could be used to hit their rumps, provoking squeals on key.
OTOH, there was also Python's mouse organ, which unfortunately was only good for one use per mouse.
