In 1762, Franklin premiered his new musical invention, the glass armonica which has been devised a year earlier at 36 Craven Street. Ethereal sounds are produced from rotating glass bowls which inspired compositions by Mozart, Beethoven, (JC) Bach, and more recently musicians like Jarvis Cocker and Damon Albarn.
