The Aeolian harp, also called a wind-harp, is named after Aeolus, the Greek idol of the winds. An Aeolian harp since the age 1860-1879 may be described as follows: a rectangular carton with strings crossing an overpass at either end, and a top hooking over the strings and admitting the air.
The Aeolian harp is the Greek counter to wind chimes. It's a stringed gadget played only by wind. Now-a-days, as the Random House glossary definition states, an Aeolian harp is a box prepared with a number of strings of the same length, tuned in harmony and sounded by wind. It creates an echoing sound, which is referred to as the whirlpool-cracking phenomenon. A whirlpool forms in curving air under convinced conditions.
