Musical instrument

A Musical instrument may refer to one of several recreational building types that provide the "Music" recreation type:

• Harp
• Harpsichord
• Piano
• Drum

Each instrument requires its own research of the same name in order to be built.

A pawn must have a Hearing capacity above 0% to get thoughts from listening to instruments, and a Manipulation capacity above 0% to play any of them. Nobles can put on concerts with the instruments, similar to a party, giving a mood bonus to the noble and attendees.

Type	Size	Audience area	Recreation Power	Resources Required	Market Value
Harp	1 × 1	12 tiles	100%	150	245
Harpsichord	2 × 3	16 tiles	100%	250	415
Piano	3 × 3	20 tiles	100%	120 +  220	670
