Me neither...they look cumbersome, awkward and an absolute nightmare to play but at least they sound nice :thumbup:

Yes I have seeing this came up once before and I set about using it as an example of how to synthesize a passable working version of almost anything you hear.

I´ve heard one Glasarmonica ten or more years ago, in a concert of an russian experimental classical percussion esemble with 2m wide tom drum, vibraphon etc., in a town hall near Frankfurt a.M. , glass harmonium sounds live amazing. The hole thing was in coorperation with Karl Wieland Kurz and his modern music konservatorium from Darmstadt/Germany, amazing modern music performance, but to modern for most of the audience....

David Gilmour had someone play one on his album 'On An Island'.
