How to play the Koshi Chime:
Hold the Koshi Mountain chime by its cord and let it hang freely. Turn it gently with a slight movement of the wrist: the central clapper sets the rods into vibration and brings forth a cascade of broad and deep notes. The broader the movement, the more the rods are set in motion. Or swing it gently in a pendulum motion to play individual notes. The Koshi chime can also simply be suspended, allowing the wind to play it through melodies that are always unexpected.
Technical Specifications:
Each Koshi Mountain chime is hand-crafted at the foot of the French Pyrenees. The craftsperson solders twelve steel rods with silver onto a metal base, then tunes them one by one, with meticulous attention to their pitch and accuracy. The fine-wood resonance chamber amplifies the vibrations and gives the Koshi chime its long, clear and warm resonance.
