e harmonium is a free-standing keyboard
instrument. Sound is produced by air supplied
by foot- or hand-operated bellows being blown
through sets of free reeds. Notes are selected by
playing the white and black keys on the front of
the instrument. Some models feature a stop that
creates a form of vibrato. A popular example of
the use of a harmonium can be found in Beatles
songs such as “We Can Work It Out.”
