primefocus took this shot of a women playing an interesting instrument during the Harvard Make Music Festival this past weekend. Does anyone know what this wacky instrument is? Also, check out this great shot of his as well.

Definitely a hydrocrystalophone.

As any self-respecting person growing up outside of Philadelphia would know, that indeed looks like a glass harmonica invented first by Ben Franklin.

I think her name is Vera Meyer. There's video of her playing it on YouTube. It sounds beautiful. Thanks for picking this picture. I learned a lot!
