Being the dour realist, I wonder if they all are members of a hand bell choir ... seems to me the musical skills would be transferable . . .

 

(I did get to hear a remarkable hand bell choir in the bay area - Sonos - for an encore they did Bach's tocata and fugue in D-minor).

Deej -- In a similar vein -- playing the glass harp. This is remarkable to see in person. Romann and I saw someone playing the glass harp on our visit to Old Town Alexandria in October. It really is mesmerizing to watch.

Benjamin Franklin invented the glass harmonica (aka glass armonica or simply armonica) after hearing and being intrigued with the sound of the glass harp.
