Hi Marc, didn't see it live, Alessandra sent me the link.
They talk about the instrument at around 2:40. Its been around since 2001.

I have a percussionist friend who owns one of these, so I've had a chance to (try) and play it.
They make it look very easy, but it ain't. It needs a precise touch and a lot of control to get those clean ringing sounds...
BTW, they are no longer manufacturing the model shown in the links...

Yeah, a very cool sounding instrument for sure, Shel. I am impressed that you've seen and played one David!
