In the world around you, if you wanted to create some instruments from items you have around the house or in your neighborhood, how would you make them? Describe a homemade instrument you could make in each of the Sachs-Hornbostel instrument categories we discussed in Lesson One. The classifications are based only on how the sound is produced; what vibrates in the instrument. Use your imagination, and be as specific as you can in describing the materials you would use, how it would be made, how it would be played, and how it would sound (minimum word count: 200; please see rubric).
