12 Weird Musical Instruments (Part 1 of 4)
I wonder what it would sound like if you put all of these in a twelve-piece orchestra?
#1: Aeolian Wind Harp
This harp is named after Aeolus, the Greek god of wind. It is not played by a human, but in fact is played by the wind vibrating its strings.
#2: Armonica
Benjamin Franklin created an early version of this instrument, which uses glass bowls filled with water to create a haunting sound.
#3: Cajón
Originating in Peru, this drum-like instrument was originally just a box with a sounding hole, but nowadays has an updated electric version.
Part 2 coming tomorrow!
