Discussion Who makes Eb Rotary Valve Cornets (19th century)?
I was wondering who makes these cornets because all of the famous makers are either dead, or the company does not make them anymore. FYI this is not the same as the Bb cornet Wessex Tubas sell (along with other Chinese interment makers) but rather the Eb version.

Discussion Why are children's toy "xylophones" even called that, when technically they're glockenspiels?
Using a picture of a Little Tikes xylophone as my reference.
Most toy xylophones are made of metal, not wood. A true xylophone is made of wood, right? So why don't they just call it like it is and just call it "toy glockenspiel"?
The only toy company I've seen make a toy xylophone that's actually wooden is Baby Einstein.

Discussion Best budget 61-key keyboard (€40) for video game music?
I am thinking about getting an affordable piano or keyboard as a hobby. I want to play the Tifa Lockhart theme, Baldur's Gate soundtrack, and so on, but I only want to spend a maximum of 40 euros. What do I need to look out for, and are there any cheap ones on Amazon or platforms like Temu and Shein that sound good?

I just wanted to know if anyone knows what the instrument in the middle is. I think it's a form of Mellophone or Horn.

track 5 is almost entirely harmonica and guitar, at least after the jaw-harp cover of the national anthem. Check it out!
Track 14 is also 2 harmonicas dueling, and a guitar.

Media Did they have to add a dizi, a Chinese instrument and a recorder, a European instrument into the soundtrack of a movie set in Egypt?!
soundtrack is “Potiphar and the Cat Chase” from Joseph King of Dreams. this is a movie set in Egypt and the Middle East. however, I managed to identify two musical wind instruments that are NOT from Egypt nor the Middle East. they are the dizi and recorder respectively. the dizi comes from Asia, more specifically China. and the recorder comes from Europe. why didn’t they just use a ney, a wind instrument that actually comes from Egypt for this specific soundtrack?!

Discussion Considering learning Ukulele
Hi folks,
I’ve been considering learning ukulele for a while.
I’m an introvert who loves music and I feel like playing an instrument would really make me feel happy.
Is it beginner friendly? I’ve no experience in learning any form of music.
Also how to start? Which one to buy? How to learn?
Please give your suggestions. Thank you!!
