Just stumbled across this ..... Amazing what some people think of during lockdown

Very good Rik.

Had a little laugh to myself with the ingenuity of this person, although I couldn't work out how many songs there were...... Still it's brilliant and I wonder how much he/she drank to get those glasses tuned to the correct pitch

Me too, it's great, isn't it?

Might show it to my brother-in-law, who's a sort of experimental musician (among other things), I think he might fancy having a go at trying this - although I don't have more than half-a-dozen wine glasses and a few champagne flutes!

It's very clever, but I couldn't watch (listen to, more accurately) the whole thing!

There is a lot more to it, water evaporates, speed in the corners, inside corner shorter dan outside etc.etc.

Yes, I think you're right. I was thinking about that in relation to the 14" radius Faller track I'd use if I gave it a try, and how that makes a loco slow down...

Should there be more glasses in the outside corner or further apart and less in the inside, oil instead of water etc,etc.

both show all the problems they encountert, in GERMAN only but a MOTION picture says more then a thousand words?

Is that not the way it was for the musical note's. Some note's in music are longer or shorter when music is played or written aren't they. I still loved it, it's something you don't see everyday.
