Vera Meyer plays the Glass Armonica (aka Harmonica) in Harvard Square, Boston, July, 2005. The instrument, an invention of Benjamin Franklin, was quickly banned after its inception. It was said to provoke insanity. The unique harmonics have also been said to import theraputic powers. It is also known as the "Glass Armonica".

  • It's amazing to me that a video about a beautiful and rare musical instrument has turned into an argument about China, Taiwan, etc. Very simply put, most of the people on the island of Taiwan, officially known as the Republic of China, are of Chinese decent. Many of the older people were actually born on the mainland. The Republic of China is what ended imperial rule in 1911. The culture and heritage of China is still alive on the island since the seperation only happened in 1949.

  • This small instrument is about $8,000. Larger ones can be as much as $20,000 as I understand it.
