Product Details

Kalimba B11 'Melody' - 11 notes - G Major - G A E D C G D G F# B A



Kalimbas are metal-tined instruments which originated in southern Africa and which can be found there in countless variations. Our Kalimba B11 ‘Melody‘ is made of solid American black cherry wood and meticulously handcrafted. The surfaces are treated and polished with natural oils and waxes. The 11 tines are precisely tuned to the scale of G-Major, so that a large number of well-known songs can be played. The ‘Melody‘ is also ideal for improvisation and intuitive playing.

We have positioned the long and short tines alternately to ensure ease of playing and in accordance with acoustic criteria. The six shorter tines have been bent so that their ends are raised above the level of the longer ones so that they can easily be reached by the thumbs. When playing from the low to the high tones, the five long tines are plucked alternately by the thumbs beginning in the middle and moving outwards - the right thumb begins on Tine No. 6 - then the six shorter tines follow, also played from the middle outwards, whereby the left thumb begins on Tine No. 5.

Tuning in 432Hz is possible and can be provided by our services. Please ask!!!

Dimensions: 140 x 105 x 35 mm
