Abstract:
A percussion instrument device may include a first container having a first lid, and a second container having a second lid. A first cavity may be defined by the first container and first lid, and the first cavity may contain a first air space and a first liquid. A second cavity may be defined by the second container and second lid, and the second cavity containing a second air space and a second liquid. A framework may couple the first container to the second container so that the containers are prevented from contacting each other. The lids of the device may be percussed to produce various sounds. The framework may be tilted back and forth in a plurality of positions so that a variable amount of liquid in the containers touches the respective lids, allowing for dynamic pitch manipulation of sounds produced while playing the device by percussing the lids.

Claim (Index 10):
A percussion instrument device for use as a percussion instrument, the device comprising:\n a first container having a first lid; a first cavity defined by the first container and first lid, the first cavity containing a first air space and a first liquid; a second container having a second lid; a second cavity defined by the second container and second lid, the second cavity containing a second air space and a second liquid; a resonant housing having a first resonant surface; and a framework, the framework coupling the first container and the second container to the resonant housing, wherein the framework prevents the first container from contacting the second container, and wherein the framework prevents the first container and second container from contacting the first resonant surface.
