Hang

I heard it before I saw it - a rich sweet bell-like sound murmuring over and through the normal street and market noises in Bastion Square. The instrument in this young man's lap is called a Hang and was developed in modern times in Switzerland. Wikipedia has a good article on this instrument and some samples of the kind of music it produces.
