Admirable Armonica Admirers

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

What do Ben Franklin and Wolfgang Mozart have in common? Find out about the musical invention, the armonica or glassy-chord. Learners will read about how Ben Franklin invented this new instrument and how Wolfgang Mozart came to play it. They'll study Mozart's Adagio in C Minor and write a paragraph describing his use of the armonica. They'll create a similar sound by playing glasses of water arranged in a major scale. Fantastic!
