So the other day I was in a public library in another city when I noticed a table of Christmas CD's and one of them featured songs performed on the ARMONICA... Turns out that my favorite Benjamin Franklin invented this instrument... Marie Antoinette was one of those who learned to play it. There were once 5000 in existance and now? ! maybe two or three players in the whole world... Linking to the site that explains it all...
William Zeitler is dedicated to bringing this instrument back from the endangered musical instruments list... The Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairies was originally written for the ARMONICA!
