New Instrument for the Tech Savvy

Friday April 4, 2008
I've been following this instrument for many many months and I cannot wait to get my hands on one. Yamaha has developed an entirely new instrument called the Tenori-On. The Tenori-On is a digital instrument created on a 16x16 matrix of LED switches, allowing users to create music "intuitively" on its "visible music" interface. You'll have to watch the videos on the Tenori-On website to make sense of how it works. I will always love the violin, cello, piano... but some of these new instruments are just too cool to pass by.
