      It's a joke extending from the "minute" waltz pun --
      "Minute" waltz meant "short" waltz, yet some cartoons say it's meant to be played in a minute (time)..... Hamelin did "minute waltz in seconds" -- playing it in seconds intervals whilst the pun carries over that he played it in seconds (time).
      Imo, the joke is genius and not to be treated seriously.
      Say what you want, but Hamelin's just having some fun in his arrangement.
