It was dubbed "first computer to sing"; a bunch of guys hacked into IBM 7094 to make it sing (or make some mass-understandable beeps in this regards). It probably involved some degree of speech and music synth. The song was Daisy Bell (A Bicycle Built for Two) written in 1892 by Harry Dacre.
Daisy, Daisy,
Give me your answer do!
I'm half crazy,
All for the love of you!
It won't be a stylish marriage,
I can't afford a carriage
But you'll look sweet upon the seat
Of a bicycle made for two.
...
Harry, Harry, here is my answer true
You're half crazy if you think that that will do
If you can't afford a carriage
There won't be any marriage
Cause I'll be switched if I'll get hitched
On a bicycle built for two
I wish she's willing to be my stoker.
