harmonica
Small rectangular wind instrument consisting of free metal reeds set in slots in a small wooden frame and blown through two parallel rows of wind channels. Successive notes of the scale are obtained by alternately blowing and sucking; the tongue covers channels not required. In chromatic models, a finger-operated stop selects either of two sets of reeds tuned a semitone apart. The harmonica was invented by Friedrich Buschmann of Berlin in 1821 (also inventor of the accordion), who borrowed the basic principle from the Chinese sheng. It is widely used in blues as well as folk and country music.
