My Homemade Celesta
This is a documentary on the construction of my homemade celesta showing each step of the process through completion. The full video is rather long so if you’d like to see the instrument finished and hear a short demo then skip ahead to [15:30], although you shouldn’t miss a couple of fun segments where I tried my hand at some amateur animations at [10:30] and [13:25].
Please leave me a comment below and let me know what you think.

You're a genius! Fantastic skill as musician & craftsman! I like playing keyboard instruments, too! I'm a creative writer and you
resemble 2 of my creations…Granville K. Hubbard (anglicized from Hlebivoda, Croatian) & Michael (Mickey) Saint-Albans.
Beautiful work!
It just shows that sometimes need leads to creation, invention and re-purposing of things to a better or more usable format.
wow amazing talents!

Cute dog! 🙂
Would you mind telling me what metal it is?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Celesta …The keys connect to hammers that strike a graduated set of metal (usually steel) plates or bars suspended OVER WOODEN resonators …

The Yamaha – so called – Cel is a Glockenspiel not a Celesta as invented by Mustel
great job 😀
Why do the bass notes make such a pronounced "clunking" sound?
Yamaha produces also celesta? Sincerely, I'm not suprised.
Wow! Amazing! Thanks for sharing.
What a beautiful instrument – really a wonderful keyed "Glockenspiel" (16:00).
BTW: A great and very entertaining video!
Thanx a lot from Germany!
