I'm sitting here quietly typing away whilst listening to a CD of Swiss folk music.
On there are some pieces played on the Alpenhorn.
Why does this stately instrument have the same effect on me as the church organ i.e. goose pimples down the spine?
The sound is vaulting, overwhelming. It makes me want to look up at the sky.
Why? It is simply air under pressure being forced through a tube.
Another case of the whole being worth more than its component parts?
