      I am a classically trained musician. I went to a Renaissance fair where they were selling them. I eagerly walked up to the table, and proclaimed, “oh cool, I can play the instrument from legend of Zelda.” The lady just smiled and handed me a pamphlet that explained the history of the instrument, along with many folk tunes that were traditionally played on it… I was embarrassed to say the least

      I had a wooden hand made flute when I was younger from a different rennfest and couldn't play that either very well.

    Summary of each of the instruments:
    Musical Saw: No explanation needed here, as it’s literally a saw played using a violin bow, and bent to change the pitch.
    Handpan: The instrument used to make part of Minecraft’s soundtrack. It’s a specially shaped steel pan with indentations of various sizes. These create the different notes when hit by your hand.
    Alpha Sphere: Essentially a MIDI controller, each pad on the sphere plays a different sample from the laptop behind it, and when hit in the right order, they make a song that you can customize to your liking.
    Alto Sheng: A miniature pipe organ that’s played like a piano while you blow into the mouthpiece like a tuba. It’s honestly hard to describe well, so see for yourself. I will say, though, each pipe sounds like it has a metal reed at the bottom, as it doesn’t sound like a regular organ, but more like trumpets.
    Ocarina: Obviously, this is Zelda inspired. It’s basically a wooden flute that’s far more compact than a standard flute is.
    Marxophone: This is essentially a dulcimer with keys instead of xylophone-like hammers.
    Glass Harp: You’ve probably seen one of these before at least once. It’s a series of wine glasses that are filled to different levels with water, producing different notes when rubbed with wet fingers.
    Jal Tarang: This is a series of different sized bowls that make different notes when hit with ceramic sticks (or they could be glass; not sure which). It’s a simple xylophone essentially.
    Hydraulophone: The most beautiful instrument on this list in my opinion. I’m not sure how it works inside, but it’s basically a water fountain that you can play like a recorder, by covering different holes to make different notes.
    Crystal Baschet: This, on the other hand, is one of the strangest instruments on this list. The part you play is made up of glass rods, which create the different notes. The rods transfer the vibrations to those two giant metal sheets that look like elephant ears, and they act like amplifiers, making the glass vibrations audible.
    Sasando: Basically a guitar built around a thick wooden stick and using piano-style strings.
    T’rung: This is a xylophone; though it looks nothing like one. It’s a set of wooden pipes that make up the bars, which are all suspended by a net-like arrangement of strings.
    Flexatone: This was probably used to make some cartoon sounds back in the day. It’s a flexible (hence the name) metal plate with two spring hammers that hit it when shaken.
    Alphorn: The worlds longest wooden horn (unverified, but it’s gotta be close) that produces surprisingly high notes for its size.
    Log Drum: A drum made out of a log. Just like the first one, its pretty simple.
    Udu: Have you ever wanted to play vases? I sure haven’t. But it’s a thing, and this is it.
    Angklung: A set of wooden tubes with stones or something inside them that rattle around when the tubes are hit. Seen here playing Seniorita.
    Lithophone: A huge xylophone made out of large slabs of stone and played with large wooden hammers.
    Water Bowls: Second place in my opinion for the most beautiful instruments on this list. It’s a set of glass bowls with water inside them. These bowls have contact microphones on the bottom of them, and what I’m assuming is a conductive metal rim on the edge of each one as well, so these require some external electronics to make the sounds they do. But boy are they beautiful when played correctly.
    Organetto: As the name suggests, this is another mini pipe organ, but this one has actual organ pipes and a massive accordion-like bellow on the side. And it’s (almost) handheld, which is crazy. Pretty cool instrument, I must say.
    Berimbau: This is essentially a hunting bow with a wooden echo chamber attached that’s played using a metal rod. Unfortunately, the clip of it here is drowned out by the throat singing, but there are probably better videos of it out there if you search for them.
    Balafone: This is another xylophone-like instrument (boy, there’s a lot of them here), and it looks just like one, but with wooden spheres as resonators instead of pipes.
    Theremin: Unfortunately, this one got skipped due to a video glitch, but what this would have sounded like is hard to describe in words. It’s an electronic instrument comprised of two antennas, one that’s horizontal that controls the volume of the note, and one that’s vertical that controls the pitch. You play it by moving one hand around the vertical antenna and moving the other up and down over the horizontal one.
    Rimba Tubes: A Blue Man Group favorite! This is a spiderweb of pipes of various sizes, which play different notes when hit with foam paddles. And yes, they’re playing Megalovania in that video clip. Like it or hate it, that’s what you’re gonna hear.
    Yaybahar: If you thought the Crystal Baschet was weird, check this one out (the time stamp isn’t perfect due to the Theremin being skipped, so click around; you’ll find it). It’s a massive string instrument that’s played like a violin, but with big metal discs on the ends of the strings. This produces a sound that’s surprisingly similar to an electric guitar, actually.
    Array Mbira: Also known as a Kalimba, or “finger piano,” this is an instrument made up of small metal fins, each of which produces a different note when plucked with your fingers. The one in this video happens to have an electric amplifier built in, but not all of them have one.
    Didgeridoo: Another Minecraft reference, as this is one of the note block sounds. This is a wooden horn that looks similar to a tuba, but instead of blowing into it, you beatbox into it. It’s a beatbox amplifier of sorts, just in case you wanted to add some bass to your beatbox.
    Waterphone: This was probably used to make horror movie sound effects at one point. It’s a metal pan of sorts with several metal tines sticking out of it. As the name implies, the pan is filled with water, and when you play it by using a violin bow on the tines, it creates some 🎶 Spooky Scary Sound Effects that send shivers down your spine 🎵.
    Hadourum Water Drums: These are wooden and metal spheres of various sizes and shapes that float in buckets of water. They make some cool sounds if hit in the right spots.

      hey! just a small correction, an ocarina isn't really like a flute, more like a recorder, and it's usually made out of ceramic, not wood. it's also not inspired by zelda, it's been around for a long time, even though it's perfect for the game!

    Instruments and Where They Sound Like
    Musical Saw: Kinda resembling a cliche cartoon ghost "ooooooooooo", so maybe a haunted house
    Handpan: Calm, tropical kind of sound. Definitely the kind you would want to hear in a beach or a private island
    Alpha Sphere: Futuristic operation. Maybe some scientific surgeons in the process of transforming an almost-dead patient into a cyborg. Either that or a cinematic showcase of a futuristic city
    Alto Sheng: Chasing a thief in a Chinese town or a village that isn't Chinese
    Ocarina: _Probably_ used by a goat person in the middle of a forest, surrounded by amazed animals. (Couldn't think of a good one because it's playing a song i recognize)
    Marxophone: BGM for an ancient forgotten temple located somewhere in Southeastern Asia
    Glass harp: Magical place where wizards and witches and magic exist (or Hogwarts i guess) or a winter fairy forest
    Jan Tarang: Witham few extra instruments, sounds like a secret, magical town in India
    Hydraulophone: Entering a majestic sea temple of Atlantis
    Crystal Baschet: Old, spooky forest that has seen better days
    Sasando: Enjoying the beauriful sunset on a Hawaiian beach with a partner watching as the sun slowly goes down the horizon
    T'Rung: Either in a Southeast Asian village or rainforest
    Flexatone: Not a place, but does sound like a cartoonish sound effect (but I can't remember what)
    Alphorn: A peaceful afternoon in a Viking village in Scandinavia
    Log Drum: Suspenseful music in a mysterious rainforest, waiting for something to pounce
    Udu: An intense fight with a giant legendary cobra in an Indian temple
    Angklung: _Possibly_ in a fight between two highly skilled warriors. Where? I don't know (again, playing a song I recognize, so it's harder)
    Lithophone: A silly chase in a village; on rooftops, riding carts and wheelbarrows, etc.
    Water Bowls: Floating in empty space
    Organetto: Peaceful day in a seaside town
    Berimbau: Normal day in a bustling city in India
    Balafone: Peacefully strolling in the Amazon rainforest, while hearing the parrots squawk
    Rimba Tubes: Along with some clapping, _maybe_ the start of an intense chase (You probably know what I'm about to say by now)
    Yaybahar: Approaching an legendary Indian temple, ready for all of the dangers it has in store
    Array Mbira: A calm dream of relaxing on poof, white clouds, with all of the work that needs to be done already finished
    Didgeridoo: Held captive by hostile tribal people; entering their skull-filled territory with tied hands
    Waterphone: Something mysterious appeared in the foggy lake, but it was too fast to make out the shape
    Hadourum: Starts off as a friendly standoff, then it wscalates into an intense chase
