In 2018 i was part of a competition to remix broken orchestral instruments... needless to say i didnt win but it top fun.... More info below from the found sound nation website. Also i now have the library of all the samples if any one wants them let me know and I will send them - got everything from micro second one pitch solo instruments through to ensembles lasting for half a minute also ........

Found Sound Nation, in collaboration with Symphony for a Broken Orchestra, has meticulously recorded the sounds of over 800 of broken instruments in an effort to inspire the public to ‘adopt’ these instruments and raise funds to repair and return them to public schools throughout Philadelphia. For these recording sessions, we invited great musicians from around Philadelphia to improvise on damaged horns, flattened fiddles, splintered double bases, padless saxophones, leaky clarinets, and busted-up snares and created a sample library of hundreds of ‘wounded’ but magnificently unique instruments
