A reed organ has "free reeds" much like those in a harmonica. These have no resonators and require little space. A pipe organ uses pipes, which can be categorized in to two groups; Flues and reeds. Flues are simply whistles - no moving parts. reed pipes contain a brass tongue but unlike a reed organ they beat against a flat surface with an opening - the "shallot" upon which a resonator is mounted. The majority of pipes are flue pipes. Many small pipe organs have no reed pipes.
The bottom of the recorder is called foot.
Some people wrongly call it a hurdy-gurdy - but a genuine hurdy-gurdy is a stringed instrument played by rotating a rosined wheel on the strings, individual notes being obtained by keys. What is usually called a barrel organ is in fact a barrel piano and has strings and keys. Confusing isn't it? An actual barrel organ has organ pipes and bellows may also called a street organ and is much smaller than a barrel piano. Nowadays you can buy or make one but it will work with a punched roll like a player piano or even a midi interface rather than the bulky, and very difficult to make, barrel.

The Harmonica is the brand name for the instrument the Mouth Organ. The Mouth Organ is a Reed Organ played using the mouth and lungs to supply the positive and negative air flow that other reed organs use bellows for. The American reed organ plays using negative air pressure ie it sucks and the Harmonium blows. The Mouth organ is the only wind instrument to use positive & negative air flow to voice reeds sounding different pitches on the suck and blow.
known as the mouth organ also know as juicebox, mouth harp, pocket harp and blue harp.

It was called a pianoforte earlier. "Piano" means "soft" and "forte" means "loud." Unlike the harpsichord--which always plays the same volume, and the organ--which requires pulling out or pushing in stops to change, the piano plays loud or soft depending on how you strike the key. The Pianoforte has now been shortened to 'Piano' as it is simpler and generally a more convenient name!
