Pachelbel is so pleasing. Canon in D played on glass harp by Robert Tiso. The first voice is the cello part (bottom right), Clockwise there is 1st, 2nd and 3rd violin. Enjoy.
I like to think Ben Franklin came up with the glass harmonica after one too many good nights of wine glass music competitions. Back in the day when a highly competent human being could be a politician too.
