Favorite Instruments from another country?
Posted by lovedbyGod8 in music on 09/09/09, 6 comments, 321 views
I dig foreign movies and I was in a music therapy class so I've seen and heard of some neat instruments from other countries, which led me to Google and YouTube some examples. I personally really love the Erhu, which is similar to the European violin/fiddle I guess:

Cool, I have Scottishness in me...lol

In that case, I send you

I like this Australian instrument, its like a horn type thing, but I cant think of the name for the life of me. You may hear it in one of the Outback Steakhouse commercials.

Ah yes, as has been said, the didgeridoo!! Funny name that! I like the sound of those too!

I love traditional Irish music, so the Irish recorder/flute is my favorite instrument. My son plays them very well and even writes his own music to play them with.
