Lately there's this project assigned which requires me to apparatus/instrument which can play twinkle twinkle little star. It has to be completely edible.
Here's a more comprehensive criteria:
1) at the presentation, teams may bring a tuning device to tune their instrument. However, contestants will not be allowed to use any tuning meter or any other device to measure or adjust musical properties during the performance.
2) cannot be made out of any pre-purchased device, meaning that it must be home-made.
3) MUST be edible immediately after the performance with no additional preparation. "Best way to think about materials: if you would be surprised to see it on your dinner plate, it shouldn't be a part of your instrument".
Example of edible materials: fruits, veggies, candy, pasta, cookies
Inedible: sawdust, reeds, bark, and aluminium foil
4) The "instrument" MUST be the source of sound production. So it can be a wood or string instrument, just to mention a few.
5) each note played must be sustained for 2 seconds. And twinkle twinkle little star must be played in the key of G major, however any octave of this key is permitted.
Please give me some suggestions as to how to start my project. I do not have any idea how to make something edible but can also play music.
Thanks!
