New Orleanians pronounce it the second way.

If you're in NOLA, then it's the second.

See if it was safe outside
And little early-pearly
Came by in his curly-wurly
And asked me if I needed a ride
The CALLY-OPE crashed to the ground

The rest of the free world...
Cally-ope is occasionally used only for the instrumental...
Proper noun should be the Greek name, hence cull I O pee...but nola gonna nola

The first is an instrument. The second is a Greek muse. Calliope and surrounding streets were named after Greek muses. I’ll let you figure out which is correct.
