Claviola

In my arrangement of the Twelve Days of Christmas, I play a different instrument on each day, but not ordinary instruments. Xaphoon, cello banjo, double ocarina, dan moi jawharp, solicaster, qanun, chordomonica, bass harmonica, sitar, bombard, tongue drum, guzheng, pipa, claviola and burdola. It was a fun challenge figuring out how to make this strange ensemble into fun, listenable music.
