This instrument is a sensory device that is primarily designed for low vision musicians. This tonal acoustic instrument is played by direct contact with water or other fluids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The hydraulophone was described and named by Steve Mann in 2005, and patented in 2011. Typically, sound is produced by the same hydraulic fluid in contact with the player’s fingers. It has been used as a sensory exploration device for low-vision individuals<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hydraulophone (H2Organ), Pachelbel’s canon<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Two people playing hydraulophone (water pipe organ flute)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Musical Fact Of The Week<\/p>\n\n\n\n Question<\/p>\n\n\n\n What is the most popular instrument in Africa?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Answer<\/p>\n\n\n\n Most widely spread and played instruments in Africa are the drum, the xylophone, the mbira, rattles and shakers<\/strong>.
