Hornophone
The hornophone is a musical instrument composed of a number of reed bulb horns, typically used as vehicle horns, clamped into a metal frame. The arrangement of the horns is much like a xylophone or glockenspiel, tuned to a heptatonic scale. Ordinarily there is either a higher or lower rack or mounting of horns tuned to sharps and flats, like the black notes of a musical keyboard. The instrument is typically played standing, by squeezing the bulbs of the horns.
Known Performers
The following are known performers of the Hornophone:
Harry Hill.[1][2] Harry played the hornophone during his Harry Hill in Hooves Live tour.
Nutty Noah. Noah has also modified the hornophone with the addition of an equivalent rack of cowbells, played with a drum stick.[4]
gollark: Also, the "disaster is inevitable" thing seems... wrong. I think if stuff is handled correctly humanity can weather the problems we currently are and are going to experience and, er, do well. Problem is that there are lots of ways to do things very wrong.
gollark: *Probably* still better than before cities and stuff. Diseases spread anyway then, but less so, and we can actually treat them and have hygiene and sanitation now.
gollark: Still, I think on the whole we're better off disease-wise than the people of, say, 400 years ago.
gollark: Hmm, I suppose so on the population densities one.
gollark: I mean, spreading them better because of increased global travel, sure, but we can also actually treat them now (ish).
