    No surprise that most of these are percussion.

    But my favorite was probably the glass harmonica, a la Mesmer. A great historic instrument and musical idea.

    Some of them were mind blowing in the most fun way (grin)!


    Now I know that my stopping because I hear a very musical sound in an unconventional place is not my own quirk. Others have gone and made whole melodies and online videos out of it.

    Best music video I have seen all week! - Sara
