I have a penchant for unique instruments, and have a few at home that I like to plunk around on (poorly) – some of my favorites are the cajon, the zither and my absolute favorite, which is a little kalimba made from a hollowed out gourd. It’s basically a little thumb piano with little metal keys that play up and down the scale. It looks a bit like this one – it’s super fun, try it!
You don’t have to be an instrument hoarder like me to appreciate this very cool video. Youtube musician Mystery Guitar Man had the amazing opportunity to visit the Musical Instrument Museum which houses over 6000 instruments from countries and cultures around the world. Watch him perform a song with 90 different instruments! -Mandi@1063RL
