What is a "claviola"?
A claviola is a unique musical instrument that combines features of both keyboard and wind instruments. It consists of a small, portable keyboard with keys that control a set of metal reeds, similar to those found in an accordion. When a key is pressed, air is directed through the reeds, producing a sound. The claviola is known for its distinctive, rich tone and is often used in various genres of music to add a unique, melodic sound. It is valued for its versatility and ability to produce expressive, resonant notes.
