Good lord. It like the essence of human sorrow in an instrument. The eerie sharp vibrato adds so much more empathy to the notes. Almost as if it was a last breath.

This is the most accurate and most poetic comment on here. And I totally agree...it does sound like a sorrowful last breath in the form of a song. Which to my melancholy artist's heart sounds deeply beautiful. Thanks for commenting!

Dylan (laughs) Sorry about that confusion! I should've just said "any major key piece" as this instrument obviously lends itself to 'darker' sounding pieces. I *believe* I confused #9 with the 8th symphony. I don't listen to classical music as often as I once did, and it's been many years since music appreciation classes I'm in a world/ethnic/cultural music phase these past few years.

Actually, if you listen to some other recordings of music on this instrument, it is actually quite beautiful. I think it may sound terrible here because of the chords he uses, and probably the way he is playing it. After all, the piece he is playing is the theme from "Devil May Call," so it is entirely probable that he is playing that way on purpose.

+Kevin R. Serrano -- I can see why the demo is given by a film composer. From Wikipedia: The wheelharp is a musical instrument with bowed strings controlled by a keyboard and foot-controlled motor, similar to Leonardo da Vinci's Viola organista, a keyboard-operated string instrument for continuously sounding strings by rubbing the strings with spinning wheels, powered by a treadle controlled by one foot of the musician. Created by Jon Jones and Mitchell Manger, the wheelharp debuted at the 2013 NAMM Show in Anaheim, California. According to the Wall Street Journal, it "looks and works like a cross between a harpsichord and a hurdy-gurdy: a motor driven wheel spins, rubbing against strings when the player depresses a key."

Saying music is supposed to be beautiful is such a shallow and uneducated way of viewing music. Music is meant to invoke feeling. Do you find a horror score beautiful? Music sets the mood. Whether it is horrendous or calming, Music being beautiful is a very western idea anyway, if you have ever heard music from other areas of the world you will find they don't sound as beautiful to you. To them, its the other way around.

Around 1490, Leonardo da Vinci designed such a wheel stringed instrument played by a keyboard that he called 'Viola organista'. (violin-organ). However, it was unsure he could really built what he only drew. .In 1600, the german engineer Hans Hayden built its look like harpsichord 'geigenwerk' (violin machine) where the strings of a harpsichord were gathered by groups of 8 over separate bridges and wheels. All the wheels were moved simultaneously by a rocking pedal. When a key is pressed, a lever pull down the related string in contact with the related rotating wheel. A historical copy built in 1625 by the spanish monk Fray Raymundo Truchado is on exhibition at the Royal Museum of musical instruments in Brussel (Belgium). In our times the Japaneese maker Akio Obuchi started to build and improve the Geigenwerk in the 1990's. His website included a full explanation and history about this instrument; Two years ago a polish harpsichordist built successfully such a Geigenwerk with which he gave public concerts.

Matthew Latawiec Because M.Slawomir Zubrzycki's Viola Organista copy it's not an important step in the history of this instrument but an outdated and late devellopment like this Wheelharp which aren't original inventions. Here below is the link of M Zubrzycki website where he explained the conditions of his rebuilding copy. You could notice that he was inspired by: I- Hans Hayden Viola Organista from 1575 but depicted in Michael Praetorius Syngtama Musicum published in 1600, II- the Viola Celi built by Fray Raymundo Truchado in 1625 now on exhibition at the Royal Museum of musical instruments in Brussels, III- above all by the description of the Viola Organista copy from Hans Hayden model that the polish Jan Jarmuciewicz published in the 1880's. For my own point of view the most important was the revival of this instrument M Akio Obuchi has done in the modern times from 1993 www.zubrzycki.art.pl/Viola%20Organista_En.htm .

For all of you out there complaining about how "harsh" and "creepy" this instrument sounds, open up your brain and think for a second. This instrument is supposed to sound like this. It's meant to sound medieval and rustic. So maybe next time before you post how harsh it sounds, remember that maybe it's intended for a reason.

i actually find this piece quite charming, in its own way. a haunting, melancholy song, accompanied by the genuine and organic sound of the instrument. chilling, almost.

This sounds like it's something someone listening to a soundtrack would have a difficult time identifying. To anyone saying it sounds terrible, this piece seems to have been written to have a horror edge; find other videos of the Wheelharp, and it sounds like a deep bass cello or other bowed string instrument.

I feel like this is the type of instrument that befits a surreal and somber psychological thriller. It's not there to soothe or comfort, but to accentuate an air of apathetic dread, and an atmosphere of one long agonisingly slow discord. Akin to a horrible train wreck happening only in the barest increments that could last centuries. Also, it reminds me of _Everywhere at the End of Time._
