Japanese TV: Musical instruments made from recycled things!

Via JapanProbe.com:
A clip of a news report about a contest in which contestants showed off musical instruments they created by recycling household items:
Instruments featured in the video include:
  • A saxophone made from a pipe, a film case, part of a balloon, and a bit of air pump hose
  • A group of printers modded to play songs together
  • A combination of disposable chopsticks, aluminum cans, and other items that a kid uses to play the Hanshin Tigers fight song
  • Two aluminum cans and a straw create an instrument that can play Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star
  • A set of horns made from plastic bottles, cup ramen containers, and straws
The plastic bottle horns won the competition, with the 49-year-old housewife that made and played them receiving a 500,000 yen check!
