Musical Body Parts
help
In old movies, whenever you see a pair of women's legs in stockings getting out of a car, it's a safe bet they'll be accompanied with a smoky saxophone solo. When they show a skeleton on a childrens' show, odds are good they'll be playing xylophone music to go with it. But what instrument should you play when the earlobe is the bodily part under consideration? And how about the pancreas? This game is an attempt to address the issue. Either suggest a bodily part, and the music to go with it, or just the part, or just the instrument, and see if the colelctive wisdom of this forum can help out.

A 1/10th scale violin. Skin?
The one-stringed fiddle has a suitably thin, stretched tone.

Are we running out of parts? The brain has to be the mighty Wurlitzer ascending from the cinema pit, with fifteen manuals, three pedal boards, a vast array of stops and couplers, and played by the mad organist whose brain it is. Little does he know that he is merely providing commentary for the pictures on the screen, not creating them.

We may not be running out, but I think we've covered all the bases, pretty much. Bones, joints, limbs, organs, have all been well-represented. Ah, here's a new one: the coccyx.
A Pushtu rabab fits the bill. The pegboard at its one end resembles the point of the coccyx. How about the nasal sinuses?
The Duduk fits the bill perfectly. How about the lymph nodes?
