cava supernova Posted July 27, 2003 Share Posted July 27, 2003 To me, maybe the most original instrument is one used in Africa, can't recall where, that is like something like a leave that u put in ur mouth and allows u to do polyphonic sounds... would somehow b similar to a doromb.Ā I am a dorombist! *jk* I do have a doromb, but just to joke around.Ā Another original instrument to me is Qena.. it's somehow like a pipe that has some tubes like the tubes in a Pan flute.. It's from the South East of Asia, Malaysia, I'd say.Ā metal bin lids' date=' like that musical troop "stomp," i think they used them[/quote']Ā Hehe.. that made me think of steel drums, they sound funny to me.

Corner Kid Posted July 29, 2003 Share Posted July 29, 2003 I was up in the mountains of Arkansas today... They sure are obsessed with Dulcimers... They're everywhere... they had posters for Dulcimer lessons and we saw a total of four people walk around carrying A Dulcimer case... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ā Ithink its northern africa (morocco and algeria) that use those, i know what you mean tho...they're cool..like a blit of metal you chomp on, then pluck a metal bar that vibrates and u move your mouth to make notes :)Ā ohhh how can we forget the comb and tissue paper :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
