I have an inclination to call bull**** on this one. I played woodwind
instruments and the length of this instrument vs the pitch don't add
up. It's been a while but I think the pitch would be higher. Of
course, in theory I can't see why it wouldn't work, just not sure
about this one...

Recorder of that length is not much different in pitch.

Skeptic.

See, that's what's wrong with the universe in the age of the
innertubes.

Nothing is ever acceptable just as it is.

The guy is a performance artist, has a huge national reputation in
Australia (which can be found on a simple Gaggle search (I refuse to
use the NAME THAT MUST NOT BE SPOKEN)) and builds odd and curious
musical instruments.

And it's not like you can't build instruments out of anything. How
many of us who are musically inclined sat at our corporate desks and
built something out of paper clips and rubber bands? I have in
particular on a slow Friday afternoon.

I mean, you can make music with anything.

Plus, that's a freakin horse carrot.

You guys need to open up your minds a little.
