Koshi River Chime | Symphony of the Earth

Flowing water, its constant movement, variability and lightness. These very forms of the river inspired the creation of the Koshi River chime from the new Symphony of the Earth collection.

Its melody in G sharp minor tuning has a gentle, flowing character. Individual tones naturally follow one another, intertwine and create rich harmonies with long resonance. With every movement of the chime, new melodic combinations are created, resembling the variability of a water current.

The Koshi River has twelve hand-tuned metal rods and a beautiful resonance body made of cherry wood. It is one of four chimes in the new Symphony of the Earth collection, inspired by mountains, forests, rivers and oceans.

How to Play the Chime and Where to Use It

Hold the chime by its suspension cord and gently sway or twist your wrist. With a slow movement, you can let individual tones resonate freely; with a livelier movement, create a continuous stream of melodic harmonies.

You can also hang the chime and make it sound with gentle touches.

The Koshi River is suited for relaxation, meditation, yoga, musical and sound meditations and the joy of music at home. Its flowing melody can be a beautiful accompaniment to quiet moments or part of playing music together.
