Dennis Parker, Cellist/Sculptor Have you ever felt like just putting the old violin to the band saw, an axe to the piano, or simply turning a half-sized fiddle into a cockroach? If you are like most musicians, you hit the highs and the lows on a fairly regular basis. Having a hobby is a great way to get away from the frustrations of practice and performance anxiety. | |||

Commonly known as a Glass Harmonica or glassarmonica. Marie Antoinette played one. Ben Franklin is credited with modernizing it.

The pianocktail was an imaginary invention of the French poetry and novels author, songs composer and jazz music player Boris Vian. It appears in "L'écume des jours". Seems that other dudes managed to build a real one: | |||
