The CDs below feature a homemade musical instrument often called the glass harmonica.
The stemware that makes up the instrument was purchased at thrift stores, flea markets, and garage
sales; only a few of the glasses are actually crystal. Some molding and window spline is used to secure
the glasses to a well worn piece of plywood. The ethereal music is produced by rubbing a wet finger
around the rim of the glass causing it to vibrate. The particular instrument used in these recordings has a
two and a half octave range and is tuned by varying the water level in each glass. The CDs feature
100% organic acoustic performances and no samples were used.

A rich, eclectic mix of original and traditional instrumentals. Features Donal Hinely on glasses and guitar

emotion flows together to form a pleasing and cohesive whole--from inspired additions of ukulele,
mandolin, percussion, and pump organ, to stark glass solo pieces with no overdubs. Standouts include "Ashokan Farewell", "Lord of the Dance", and "Strawberry Fields Forever".
