MUSICAL ODDITIES

[snoozenstein]

I visited joy yesterday and we spent most of the night watching pushing daisies (which is pretty adorable) and THEN looking up unusual or unconventional musical instruments.

HERE ARE SOME OF MY FAVORITES!

The Ondes-Martenot

Spooky, bittersweet sounding, I guess? Sounds similar to a theremin.

ONCE BELIEVED TO CAUSE INSANITY. :D
