Talk:Atonal instrument

Instruments and non-instruments

I'm not convinced that it makes much sense to single out whistles as “not instruments”. While whistles are not handled by music.c, neither are bells. Also, there aren't really any useful properties shared by atonal instruments, so I'm not sure what excluding whistles is supposed to achieve. I don't really care that much; it just seems odd to see whistles explicitly listed as not instruments when this classification has no real basis in the source code, and no real effect. -- Killian 12:23, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
