18-pk of Whirly Tubes available from Amazon: https://amzn.to/3vXQW4g • The Whirly Tube is a fun and simple instrument for people of all ages! • The whirly tube, corrugaphone, or bloogle resonator, also sold as Free-Ka in the 1960's-1970's, is an experimental musical instrument which consists of a corrugated (ribbed) plastic tube or hose (hollow flexible cylinder), open at both ends and possibly wider at one end (bell), the thinner of which is rotated in a circle to play. It may be a few feet long and about a few inches wide. The faster the toy is swung the higher the pitch of the note it produces, and it produces discrete notes in the harmonic series like a valveless brass instrument, but the fundamental and second harmonic are difficult to excite.[1] To be played in concert the length of the tube must be trimmed to tune it. Hornbostel–Sachs number: 412.22, the tube is a whirling (turns on its axis) non-idiophonic (reedless) interruptive free aerophone, but is usually included in the percussion section with sound effects such as chains, clappers, and thunder sheets.
