Solo music from a Ben Franklin design called an Armonica.

It is difficult to find Armonica music that is by itself. I had people interested, so I decided to post this link of the Armonica by itself.

An awesome musical instrument. I wonder what the cost is to have one made?

I am sure it would be expensive; the glass has to be blown, then ground to tune each piece.

I would like to hear a duet on this instrument! :D

howdy there sir smithlabs..haha! yeah right people were interested. lol.

Very nice! Thanks for finding this link, Toby! Very cool instrument.

Thanks, I really like the sound! Almost haunting, but I enjoy hearing it! :)

Beautiful!

Not your run of the mill music for sure. I just love the tones it makes! :D

I was wondering but didn't say anything. You may already know about this but........

I was wondering how it was tuned. If it is tuned at 432 Hz it would explain the attraction to the sound.

It is tuned similar to a piano, so it would have both of these frequencies. They tune this instrument by grinding the individual glass resonators to the exact frequencies. These tuned resonators are stacked in vibration isolators on the central powered shaft. :D

Glad you enjoyed this are music!

Thanks for letting me know about it!
