The Oddmusic Gallery

Oddmusic opens a window to the world of odd, unique, experimental and unusual music and musical instruments. Have you ever heard of a Bikelophone, a Clackamore, a Jomama, or a Tamburitza?


Shown above is a 'serpent,' an ancient musical wind instrument, related to the modern tuba, euphonium, and baritone. It is blown with a cup shaped mouthpiece which is very similar to that of a trombone. When played loudly it can produce unpleasant noises reminiscent of large animals in distress.
