The classically trained musicians of cordis play custom-made and traditional instruments: electric mbiras and cimbalom, modified typewriters, pitched wind tubes,19th century talking machines, and the world’s longest-playing cylinder-driven music box. It’s chamber music with an art/rock/punk aesthetic.
