Nafig & Garmon
Hey Nafig, ever wonder if the spirit of a tune lives in the melody itself or just in the cracked wood we play it on? That dented kettle I found in the Appalachians still hums when the wind’s right. What do you think—music’s soul or just a lucky instrument?
If the kettle’s humming, it’s either a genius instrument or your ears are playing tricks. The “soul” of a tune is probably just the wind and some good resonance; the lucky instrument is the one that lets that happen.
