Came here hoping to see Simone Giertz pulling teeth to try to get different notes, and was not disappointed.

Also happy she didn't go with xylophone sounds. I like the creepy clacking.

One of them needs a polka dot xylophone

When life gives you lemons you make lemonade. When life gives you xylophones you play Kashmir.

Kudos to those *kids

Can't say that xylophone Zep really works for me, but there's no denying the effort!

Every note says a word in a phrase. "Never been done before". Check the link below. This is a classic but be WARNED the audio is very very NSFW.

Cool --

I've never been to that particular place (in Ayutthaya Thailand), but I've seen elephants actually playing an oversized xylophone-type instrument at the elephant training center / hospital in Lampang Thailand, a couple hours from my home.

Those elephants could play a simple melody, given a mallet held in the trunk and an instrument large enough to accommodate their trunk dexterity. I didn't see the mahouts / handlers exerting any sort of direct control over them while they were playing, so I think that they remember the songs, timing, etc. all internally. This elephant bobbing along with the music suggests that they have rhythm and an innate enjoyment of the music, also.

Amazing animals, and cool to watch!

Gotta love that ending..
"raahhaaaaaaa take that you damn xylophone!!"

A queer who plays the xylophone?? Man, you'd be ace to have around with any sort of alphabet game!

xylophone? what, you think i'm some kinda queer?!

Try something that only requires a couple notes or one line melodies, like a xylophone! Then you can be the bad ass xylophonist soloing over the top of everyone else.

I think there was a screaming man and someone playing a xylophone too.

OK, That audio is fake - and I thought I heard an elephant in there at well.
Not that getting dragged away by scared cows isn't funny...

Upvote for the xylophone.
