Description

This unique instrument of Agatea looks very much like a bendy two foot long comb with handles at either end. It can be played in various ways due to its flexible construction. As the handles are moved, dozens of small rectangular wooden blocks hit each other in succession, creating a captivatingly active rhythm very similar in sound to a row of dominoes falling.
