Opalomperz okay...so i now realize that i was extremely out of order when i was addressing the makers of this site, and i would like to say that i am very sorry for speaking of your site in this manor and actually think that this is a very informational and intriguing site!
oh and by the way for all you doubters or meanie heads out there yes my name is true...its just unusual, its a Nordic name		 1/31/2009
Emmalynne Ok i don't know who you children are (Chansey...Shirley T...Opalomperz?) but this site is NOT for fooling around. Music is a very serious matter and you should not be calling the creators of this site mentally challenged ok because this site has helped many people...and yes Tokio Hotel is good..i really like them too..but this is NOT the Tokio Hotel fanclub site..no it's about instruments...so yes
i like this website very much thank you
remember...

Anne I love your history of the glockenspiel, but I was wondering if it was ever a handheld instrument. If it could be portable, I mean. Papageno is given a magic glockenspiel in Die Zauberflote, and I'm designing a half-size costume for him, and wanted to make a glockenspiel he could carry around with him and play alongside Tamino's flute. 11/20/2007
