The cup vibrates.

The player softly hits the cups with a wooden stick on the border to get the sound. Depending upon the sizes, each cup has its own natural frequency. Cups for notes of lower octave are large while those notes of higher octaves are smaller in size. Water is poured into the cups and the pitch is changed by adjusting the volume of water in the cup.
