I had the honor of listening to a concert, including "The Flight of the Bumblebee". The concert took place in 1998? at the Calgary Piano Museum. The gentleman who owned his homebuilt Armonica played for Linda Ronstadt on one of her albums. Franklin’s instrument is called a “Glass Armonica.”

It's a staple of javanese musics for centuries now... For the Bonang’s when paired with other javanese instruments, it could be called a Gamelan orchestra.

Having the sound video adds a great deal, thanks. The Swiss hand drum is a rip off of the Jamaican pan which has been made and used in the Caribbean for 50 or more years.

After hearing about it in college, I always wanted to see one, and finally did in 2001 - the musical instruments collection at the Kunsthistoriches Museum in Vienna, Austria has one on display. Just beautiful. But a difficult instrument to become good at, apparently: the constant vibration of the glass under your fingertips eventually produces carpal-tunnel-syndrome symptoms.
