Französisch Begriff oder Satz: baton de pluie
This is a hollow tube - often made of bamboo - filled with little objects. When it is turned over with one end down, the objects fall and make a swooshing sound. So what's the English term?

A simple-to-make rainstick made from paper towel tubes, aluminum foil, and small beans or seeds - a great musical instrument that you can make.

Thanks all. The one word spelling seems to predominate. Rain maker also seems to be often used, though dificult to varify its frequency.

C'est un moment de vie crue, sincère, tantôt joyeuse, tantôt acide – le
"candide" Lance règle quelques comptes dans Evil – mais toujours
passionné. Lance chante toujours comme si sa vie en dépendait, c'est un bon
musicien, qu'il joue de sa Fine Reso-phonic, de sa lapsteel Gibson de 1938 ou
de sa guitare mexicaine achetée 42 dollars sur la route, et Donna, quand elle
ne pousse pas la chansonnette – I'm In The Mood - continue, imperturbable, à
marquer le tempo en secouant son rainstick, un bâton de pluie offert, lui aussi,
sur la route, un inaltérable sourire aux lèvres.

I guess the higher confidence level decides it!

Rainmaker

Erklärung:
See these two sites where there are pictures:
http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=rainmaker+musical+ins...
http://www.musiccorner.co.uk/index.php?cPath=5_848_2065
On the second site are pictures of rainmakers and rainsticks.

I dont really know the difference, but in my other life as a musician we referred to them as 'rainmakers'
I just wonder if the rainsticks are the smaller ones

Sorry, Bourth - and I've made lots of those too- and we still called them rainmakers! I suspect it is one of those things where either translation is the right one and it probably depends which country you are in etc etc. Sorry to be a pain.........

rain stick

Erklärung:
A rainstick is a large wooden hollow stick with small pebbles inside that make sound like rain when you rotate the stick. I believe it's from Chili. You can see the dictionary definition here:
