  • Obvious musical influences include Brian Eno and Philip Glass :o)

  • Thank you very much!

    Approaching it from the street, I knew I was on the wrong side, and only meant to try out a note or two... but when I realized the hydraulophone could play more than one note at once, I couldn't stop!! Had to try something that would allow me to squeeze in a four-note chord! ;o)

    Hydraulist, it is an instrument with a beautiful sound, and is very fun to play!!! Thank you for bringing it out that day!!

  • Excellent playing and musical expression!

    Really good hydraulophone technique in terms of finger embouchure, considering you're playing it from the more difficult side (presumably you didn't want to get sprayed with the water, but it is a lot easier to play from the center of the curvature radius).
