Instruments are searchable by <a href="http://learningobjects.wesleyan.edu/vim/cgi-bin/type.cgi">type</a> (idiophones, aerophones, etc.), by <a href="http://learningobjects.wesleyan.edu/vim/cgi-bin/material.cgi">materials</a> (wood, bamboo, etc.), or by <a href="http://learningobjects.wesleyan.edu/vim/cgi-bin/regions.cgi">geographic region</a>. The photos are very good, and many instruments are represented by excellent MP3 audio clips. And the <a href="http://learningobjects.wesleyan.edu/vim/cgi-bin/exhibits.cgi">exhibits</a> (QTVR movies: drag your mouse to see the instrument from all angles) are wonderful. tag:metafilter.com,2006:site.55041 Mon, 25 Sep 2006 08:45:22 -0800 africanmusic drums indianmusic instruments music musicalinstrument musicalinstruments virtualmuseum wesleyan flapjax at midnite
