Baby Child Harmonium Musical Instruments Music Color Brown

A harmonium, also called a "melodeon", "reed organ" or "pump organ", is a keyboard instrument that is a lot like an organ. It makes sound by blowing air through reeds, which are tuned to different pitches to make musical notes.

In a hand-pumped harmonium, the player pushes and pulls a handle back and forth with one hand, which is joined to the bellows that blows the air.

There are two sets of bellows, one internal and one external. They are constructed to have 2 folds.

Because of this, he or she can only use one hand to play the keys as the other has to keep pumping the bellows, so that the instrument could be played while the player was sitting down on the floor.

Bellows can be opened on the middle. The bellow opens sideward and is held by two brackets, right- and lefthanders to play the Harmonium comfortably.

This is a handmade instrument. It comes with fine tuning.
