Consider This
For this challenge, you will build your own instrument. Using craft materials, recyclables, etc. (whatever you have around the house), create any instrument you want or invent a new kind of musical instrument. In principle, any object that produces sound can be considered a musical instrument – it is through purpose that the object becomes a musical instrument. What could you use to make an instrument? What instrument could you make? Drums, guitar, whistle!?!
