Make music everywhere; even at work.
My Favorite Hand Drum
There is a big clear blue 5 gallon container we use at the coffee shop to haul ice from the back (where it’s made) to the front (where we use it). One day I hit the bottom of it like a hand drum, and it resonated at a perfect 4th! Later, I started playing the container using a regular pattern. My coworker then picked up a yogurt scoop and started banging on another (very small) metal container. It was fun and sounded great (and yes, we did still get our work done)!
We westerners tend to be way too reserved when it comes to audible expression. Just make some sound! It’s fun and you’ll be in a better mood when you’re done. You can’t play an ice container like a drum at work and not put everyone around you in a better mood. Just do it briefly, tastefully, and at an appropriate time (maturity guys, come on).
Make music everywhere you are…just because.
