Leonardo Da Vinci's Musical Instrument Built

[Wish]

Kinda interesting....sort of a piano/cello combination.

Leonardo Da Vinci's wacky piano is heard for the first time, after 500 years

That thing doesn't sound bad at all. In fact it sounds incredible!

Did you notice the stereo recording microphone set up?

Sounds surprisingly good! -A little squeeky towards the end. I am wondering if they have to rosin that thing up frequently. Then again I am sure they could come up with a device that automates that as well.

The length of the instrument is surprisingly shorter than I had imagined.

Just think.....if Leonardo had built it 500 years ago, by today there would probably be a digtal version of it.

I was thinking that he did, if you consider fingers digits, and how today everything is played on keys, Leo was way ahead of the curb.

Speaking as an instrument making anorak that is pretty awesome. Sounds like a viol consort all on it's own.
