cymbals

Cymbals with bright sounds, made of brass and heavy cast bronze, for meditation, signal tone, for awakening, ...

Cymbals are small cast bowls. There are always two connected with a cord, which are struck together and a bright sound is heard.

Lighter brass cymbals have a rather subtle sound, while heavier bronze cymbals sound powerful and penetrating.

Cymbals are already mentioned in the Bible. In Asia they are still often used ritually for religious ceremonies.

In belly dancing, smaller cymbals are used as finger cymbals with a loop for belly dancing. Attached to the middle finger and thumb, the finger cymbals can be struck in one hand to accompany the dance.

Chime bars, or even called zenergy chimes, are similar in sound. A solid metal rod is hung freely on a wooden board. If you hit the stick with a hard mallet, you will hear a bright sound. Chime bars are available in different moods and several together as two or three chords.

Hapi drum - deep sound

The most popular tuning for the hapi in the low register is pentatonic D minor, which builds up a calm, softly vibrating harmonic sound.

Very beautiful and somewhat more appealing is the tuning in D-Akebono, a Japanese pentatonic, which does not sound quite as calm as the conventional pentatonic, but builds up a little more tension.

d-minor pentatonic. D - F - G - A - C - D - F - G

D Akebono D - E - F - A - B - D - E - F

Evry Hapi comes with two mallets and a bag.
