Pluck them, bang them, shake them and blow into them! These instruments, from wood temple gongs to water drums and stamping tubes, produce every type of joyful noise. Make a fun 'gourd orchestra' of rattles, like a Mesoamerican Indian rain stick and African shekere; a Caribbean guiro; a gorgeous mbira or thumb piano; and friction drums that wail or roar. There are instruments from near and far, from the unusual to the familiar banjo and guitar. Tips on choosing, cleaning, and sealing a gourd and decorating and playing the finished instrument, help to create beautiful music.
