Wright, John

Promenade

JOHN WRIGHT (1939-2013), the man who made the jew's harp sing. The jew's harp is an idiophone whose vibrating element is a reed operated by pinching, using the musician's mouth cavity as a resonator. This was the little musical instrument, often regarded as a toy or gadget, that became a favourite of, and admirably played by, an Englishman living in France. For John, music meant singing, crwth, violin. But always with a special fondness and wonder for the jew's harp.
