The alto psaltery has 2 Octaves from sol (G) to sol (G), ca. 57 cm lang.
It starts a little lower than the soprano string psaltery but also ends on the high sol (G). The lower strings also make the resonance of the instrument deeper and richer.
The frame is made from glued rings of plywood. On this frame the goat skin will be sewed. This drum is tuneable by small screws in the frame. The screws press the last ring, which is not glued, against the skin. So you can stretch or release the skin.
For easy carrying, there's a handle on the back.
The drums is streched with natural skin and only shaved on the drumming space. On the frame are still hair.
Oversized skins on the borders can kept for order.
Die Trommel wird mit naturbelassnen Ziegenfellen bespannt, welche nur in der Trommelfläche rasiert werden. Am Trommelrand bleiben die Haare stehen.
Auf Wunsch kann auch überstehendes Fell belassen werden.
Even for using as a table gong are the small Feng.
The feng are thinnner than the table gongs and they don't have a border..
Cause this the sound is more vibrating.
