Music is a mystery for people who play it, write it, listen to it, and write about it. The only thing I can really do when I try to say something about music is assume.

What a lovely instrument! Better not tune it, though...perhaps it can be used like John Cage's or Bernd Wiesenmann's toy piano pieces?
This is very beautifully crafted, however I would be too nervous to try and tune it! Better to be used as a fine collectible, perhaps.
Seth took one look at it and said "That's what WH plays." LOL!
Just like his grandma!
