I've played a woodwind instrument (the flute) as well as the piano, but to play them simultaneously was never high up on my to do list; with the Eigenharp Alpha, though, I could at least pencil it in. This unique instrument is also tech-friendly, which is perfect for today's musician.
According to Uncrate, the Eigenharp Alpha features "a breath pipe, 120 keys, 12 percussion keys, two strip controllers, and multiple pedal inputs," which can be connected to a custom software program via a Mac computer. If you're not sure what your musical calling is, knock two off your list with this one.
