A truly wonderful thing, and seems like a truly wonderful man, too. Thanks.
Agreed, that sounded surprisingly wonderful. He’s very good at playing that thing.
Squishy keyboard is good - want to squash squishy keyboard!
This makes me smile - especially when he reaches that high note.
That’s awesome! Wolfgang A. would approve. And he’s right, Die Zauberflote is one of my most favorite things in the whole world.
Ohhhh I get it.
I misinterpreted the headline.
I thought it was telling me that Mozart himself played this instrument, not that his music was played on it.
Same here. I refute the assertion that Mozart played this thing. Fake news!
It sounds a little like the beer bottle organ.

Delightful! I’d love to hear it accompanied by a glass armonica.
I was about to post that site! Great site for weird instruments.
The one that blows my mind is the “Bazantar”.
That thing is great just for the choice of sample song.
This reminds me of the alien engineers’ spaceship squeezy controls in the Aliens prequel, Prometheus. The skweeze-ball instrument sounds light-years better, though! Stupid aliens.
Loved the groped “grapefruit” glissando.
