Dame Evelyn Glennie meets Professor Steve Man from the University of Toronto Applied Science Faculty. Inventor of the Hydraulophone, Evelyn's Introduction to it. Nov 2007
evelyn glennie is so fascinating...this instrument...question: what is the temp and force of the water? i would imagine hands could become cold, saturated...hmmm...curious. lovely sound!
The hydraulophone is similar to a woodwind instrument, but it runs on incompressible (or less compressible) fluid rather than a compressible gas like air. In this context hydraulophones are sometimes called "woodwater" instruments regardless of whether or not they are made of wood (as woodwind instruments are also often not made of wood).

All you need to set yourself free is imagination.

Wow you could really spritz the front row pretty good with that contraption. Also, I guess you could tell a virtuoso by their spongy dish-pan-hands.
