National Kazoo Day celebrates an instrument created during the nineteenth century in United States.
Celebrated on January 28th (or on the fourth Thursday in January), National Kazoo Day was founded by Chaplin Willard Rahn of the Joyful Noise Kazoo Band located at the Homewood Retirement Home in Williamsport, Maryland. The campaign to make kazoo the national musical instrument of the United States continues to this day.
The Kazoo is an American musical instrument first developed in the 1840s and introduced to the world in 1852 by Alabama Vest and Thaddeus Von Clegg, a German clockmaker, during the Georgia State Fair. Known as the Down South Submarine, music is created by humming through the instrument.
Changing the humming style of the musician changes the vibration.
On this day, kazoo enthusiasts would be delighted to know that kazoo can be purchased with discount. This is also the time when kazoo players meet up, play and share their music.
