Violin (solid), Hydraulophone (liquid), and Clarinet (gas)

Summertime played on all 3 states-of-matter: Violin (produces sound by matter in its solid state); Hydraulophone (produces sound by matter in its liquid state); and Clarinet (produces sound by matter in its gas state). Violin by Alex Cheung, violinist of The Parkdale Revolutionary Orchestra; Hydraulophone, S. Mann (inventor of hydraulophone); Clarinet, R. Janzen (also a composer for hydraulophone).

put a shirt on. just kidding, nice job. but seriously put a shirt on.

Not sure what kind of swimsuit has a shirt-part; maybe an old 1932 Janzen "Topper" suit or earlier, or a fast-dry lycra shirt???

Could always wear a neoprene dive suite that covers the upper body, although not cold enough to really need it...

There's another instrument called plasmaphone, and yes, sometimes we do play in all four states, for example, we did a concert at the Music Gallery in Toronto with cello (solid), hydraulophone (liquid), pipe organ (gas), plasmaphone (plasma), and brainwave EEG electrode interface to synth (idea), to embody the five Classic Elements:

Earth (solid);

Water (liquid);

Air (gas);

Fire (plasma);

Idea (informatics).

Done that!

Try searching for "plasmaphone"

on YouTube as well as on Google.

Yes, we really need a reedless aerophone like maybe a tin whistle (tin flute). At least the hydraulophone is reedless (your concern regarding the hydraulophone has also been raised with regard to hydraulophones that have reeds, so there's some nice philosophical purity in reedless instruments for water as well as for air).

@hydraulist inst the plasma Element, talking about energy instead of really plasma itself??

[vortexxman]

You're the inventor of the Hydraulophone???!!

That's awesome!!
