The niceties in an A R Rahman orchestra also depend on the inventive instruments he chooses. The maestro always checks out innovative instruments and breakthrough technologies in music during his tours abroad.

Recently when he was in the US, A R Rahman got himself a specially made instrument called Harpejji. It is a novel keyboard-inspired instrument with the timeless sound of real strings. Harpejji is a tapping instrument which gives out the music of a guitar and piano without strings.

The manufacturing company specially made a Harpejji in record time to present it to A R Rahman. A R Rahman with his Oscars made the company representative visibly exited on his way to deliver the instrument at his place.

Check out the video. From the delivery of the instrument to A R Rahman sampling it.
