Wow. Years ago, John Sebastian (of The Lovin' Spoonful) was doing a radio show here in L.A. called the Good Time Music Show. I remember one night he actually talked about the Marxophone because he used one on the song "She Is Still a Mystery," It was hard to picture from the way he described it and I've always wondered what it looked like. Thanks for sharing.

That's AMAZING! It sounds like a cross between a piano, dulcimer and set of bagpipes!
-
Wow! Absolutely fabulous music! I have never heard of that instrument before. Where does it originally come from? I love zither music and that reminds me a little of that kind of sounds. Greetings from Finland ;)

BEAUTIFUL!
How do you amplify it? Is there a way to install wiring and an output or does it have to be mic'd?
Also, it seems like one of those that's never quite in tune, is that right?

Stephen Foster's "Hard Times Come Again No More" There are lots of versions of it on YouTube - James Taylor, Maura O'Connell, Kate & Anna McCarrigle, Nanci Griffith, Laura Love, & Bruce Springsteen, to name a few.

Sounds an awful lot like a gospel song, but I can't place it right off the top of my head.
Used in the song "Anna Molly" by Incubus
