It's a mouse living in the horn. He's singing along to the music.

My C-19 has done this, and it was the horn feed system it would squeak, about 3 times during the play of a record, pay attention to the upper bushing where the horn lift lever is, the lower bushing with the ball joint, and the feed rack and worm gear, it most likely is there, also check that the friction spring is not rubbing on the moulded arc when it is playing.
I will check this, the effect is similar to what your mentioning, about three times during a record. I haven't noticed it moving the horn from side to side, but the reproducer down probably creates another effect.
