Harmonica:
The harmonica, also French harp,
blues harp, and mouth organ,
is a free reed wind instrument used
worldwide in many musical genres,
notably in blues, American folk music,
jazz, country, and rock and roll.
There are many types of harmonica,
including diatonic, chromatic, tremolo,
octave, orchestral, and bass versions.
A harmonica is played by using the mouth
(lips and/or tongue) to direct air into and out
of one or more holes along a mouthpiece.
Behind the holes are chambers containing at
least one reed.
A harmonica reed is a flat elongated spring
typically made of brass, stainless steel, or bronze,
which is secured at one end over a slot that serves
as an airway. When the free end is made to vibrate
by the player's air, it alternately blocks and unblocks
the airway to produce sound.
Guitar :
The guitar is a popular musical instrument classified as
a string instrument with anywhere from 4 to 18 strings,
usually having 6. The sound is projected either acoustically
or through electrical amplification.
It is typically played by strumming or plucking the strings
with the right hand while fretting (or pressing against the fret)
the strings with the left hand.
The guitar is a type of chordophone,
traditionally constructed from wood and strung with either gut,
nylon or steel strings and distinguished from other
chordophones by its construction and tuning.
The modern guitar was preceded by thegittern,
the vihuela, the four-course Renaissance guitar,
and the five-course baroque guitar, all of which contributed
to the development of the modern six-string instrument.
Electric guitars, introduced in the 1930s, use an amplifier
that can electronically manipulate and shape the tone.
Early amplified guitars employed a hollow body,
but a solid body was eventually found more suitable,
as it was less prone to feedback.
Electric guitars have had a continuing profound
influence on popular culture.
Jingle Bell:
A jingle bell or sleigh bell is a type of bell which produces a
distinctive 'jingle' sound, especially in large numbers.
They find use in many areas as a percussion instrument,
including the classic sleigh bell sound and morris dancing.
They are typically used as a cheaper alternative to small
'classic' bells.
The simplest jingle bells are produced from a single piece
of sheet metal bent into a roughly spherical shape to contain
a small ball bearing or short piece of metal rod.
This method of production results in the classic two- or
four-leaved shape. Two halves may also be crimped together,
resulting in a ridge around the middle.
A glass marble may also be used as the ringer on larger bells.
