First we have a Hungarian cimbalom built in Budapest by Schunda in the early 20th century. These are quite rare in the USA, and this is the grand-daddy of all hammered stringed instruments. Then pictured is a Brazilian berimbau, a single stringed instrument descended from the bow. The Young Chang baby grand piano was dropped from a crane during a house remodel in Aspen, Colorado, and slid down a hillside on its top and crashed into the ravine below. Fortunately pianos are made like tanks and this one survived to be voiced for recording and is loved by microphones and pianists alike.
