Another day, another #forgotteninstrument... Meet the viola d'amore, similar to a #violin or #viola but with six to seven melodic #strings and, more importantly, a number of non-playable #sympathetic (resonating) metal strings which provide warm, lush and #drone-like #harmonics.

The #arpeggione has now even found its way into #jazz & #moderncreative #music: Simon Drappier plays the arpeggione within the band "Quiet Men", which features a few other not-so-usual instruments. The pairing of the arpeggione with the the #bassclarinet (and oriental #zarb for the rhythmic section) is especially soft and #mellow... Warm music for cold winter days! 🦊
