" From one material to the next,
the construction of instruments eventually embraces all of nature.
As Cobarieu remarks,
musical instruments put into the hands of the magician
' parcels of all the kingdoms of nature:
they are made of rosewood or bamboo,
pods of certain fruits,
metal, hardwood, sonorous stone,
animal skins, shells, bone,
horns, silk, twisted raffia, tendons, gut…
they constitute a summary of the cosmos'. ”
~ Andre Schaeffner ~
