And (not to jack your thread, but to add further #MusicTrivia)
It was #organ builders who added crucial differences to 3,000 year old free reed designs imported from Asia
These âwesternizedâ free reed organs then developed into everything from the #harmonica, #harmonium and #accordion
Nobodyâs quite sure, but it might have been one of a few German guys working in Copenhagen who showed them off in Saint Petersburg (#WorldMusic 1780)

Well that was a party
Allez, bouge Paris, bouge !
Elle est pour toi, cette chanson, pour toi ma bonne ville
Tu sais pourquoi quand mĂȘme ! ? non, tâas pas encore compris ? !
Câest parce que moi jâaime pas du tout chanter des chansons gaies
Et divertir les foulesâŠ

Years ago I bought a #harmonica. I enjoyed playing Billy Joel's Piano Man on the piano and wanted to learn the iconic harmonica part to go along with it. Since these harmonicas are all tuned to a specific key, I had to buy the right one. Thankfully, Piano Man requires the very common key of C major.
A year or so ago, I was listening to another song from the Piano Man album: The Ballad of Billy the Kid. It also features a harmonica part in the intro. I wondered, what are the chances that Joel used the same harmonica in that song? I grabbed my old C major harmonica and was happy to find I could indeed play along.
Yesterday I was listening to Prelude/Angry Young Man, released three years after Piano Man. I heard another harmonica line. So I wondered, would Joel have bought a different harmonica by that time?
He hadn't.

Quelle fut donc ma peine quand je découvris
Que tout ça nâest que scĂšne de bonheur patri-
Ote aprÚs quelques ballons bien placés du pied.
Tous, au fond de leur salon, se sont cru gagner !
Quelle est cette allĂ©gressâ qui anime ma rue ?
Câest mon cri de dĂ©tressâ, câest un espoir quâon tue.

Ivre de sentiments, bonheur en bandouliĂšre,
Lâesprit vagabondant, presque surrĂ©aliste,
Portée par les passants mais sourde à leur priÚre,
Ă lâheur mâabandonnant, je continue ma liste :
Jâimagine un instant quâils marchent sur la piste
Dâun revenu dĂ©cent, non misĂ©rabiliste ;
Je rĂȘve que ces gens se voient contents et fiers
Dâavoir pour un moment Ă©vitĂ© une guerre.
