H₂Orchestra

H₂Orchestra was born when the sounds of liquid flowing through valves inspired H₂Orchestra member S. Mann to invent the hydraulophone in the early 1980s.

H₂Orchestra uses the patented hydraulophone technology. Hydraulophones are instruments in which the sound originates from turbulence and vortex-shedding phenomena of water itself.

Hydraulophones are currently manufactured by FUNtain, a Canadian company with headquarters in Toronto, Ontario.
