Glenn plays The Magic Flute ( the kidnapped Camels)

This is a video of the very first time the Magic Flute was played. 6 year old Glenn was the first in the world to try this new instrument. I did not tell him what we where going to do. What then happened kept us speechless for a day or two. At the end Glenn told us where his song was all about, "kidnapped Camels in the dessert". If you hear some sniffing in the background then its me and Glenns mother.
We never could for see that this would happen. Now a year later we have a small production line in what I believe is one best adaptive musical instruments around.

The Magic Flute was originally designed as an adaptive musical instrument for people with little or no arm movement -- with the goal of allowing people with a wide range of disabilities the ability to perform live electronic music that can be at the highest professional quality.

I teache windcontrollers to disabled kids who cannot ordinarily play traditional instruments. It's a new and amazing concept! They have fun with respiratory therapy, fulfill creative needs and the world is a better place as they inspire us with their unique musical voices.

did this kid know how to play nething before first using this?

[Audiorhoon]

Yes indeed, he never played an instrument before. I even did not tell him what he was going to do. - I programmed a chromatic scale in the memory of the instrument and of he went. We were totally amazed by young Glenn. It was one of the most emotional moments in my life (and that of his mother).

He was 6 years when we made this clip.
