Thus the true soundtrack of the Declaration Of Independence is the ethereal tones of Benjamin Franklin playing glass armonica. He thought the sounds of the instrument evoked liberation. In that sprit he never patented the invention and sold many at the cost to produce.https://twitter.com/BrianRoemmele/status/1146802134307840002 …

On July 4th 1776 Benjamin Franklin played his invention to motivate signers of the Declaration Of Independence.
Some thought the high-pitched ethereal tones invoked the spirits of the dead
