The only thing I can think of is that every one is eating their own Appassionata; hopefully when their indigestion is settled many people will post many ingenious and lovely piano photos...

Regarding that most interesting instrument you posted, I saw this fascinating comment:

"but I’m especially interested to hear the Glass Armonica with its reputation to drive people insane (which may well be due to lead content in the original instruments) – heres a video of Thomas Bloch playing it:

I assume that if this comment was true at all, then the basis might be the lead glass and wetting your fingers in ones mouth?

Also I was interested to understand what, if any, piano-like connection there might be. I read that the piano keyboard pattern is replicated with the black/white keys and also that there is such a thing as a Keyboard Armonica as well - maybe someone has that photo to post then...
