Auris Curved Pentatonic 7-tone xylophone

item_KPH.jpg
The pentatonic scale consists of five notes ( D E G A B ). This allows any succession of notes to be played and always sound harmonious. AURIS Pentatonic pure-fifths tuned 432 Hz xylophone The pentatonic tuning is a basic musical phenomena. It consists of large second- and small third-interval steps. This scale enables the mixing of tones in any thinkable combination � yet it always plays heavenly, harmonic melodies. Pentatonic music is one of the most powerful tools to guide a child into the world of music. In order to obtain an even warmer and more sonorous scale, this AURIS-Glockenspiel was tuned into a pure fifth-interval system. Adjusted to the pitch 432 Hz which is used by ear physicians and also recommended by the founder of the Waldorf school system, Rudolf Steiner, while harmonised with the biological function of the ear. The player will relax and build up inner energy. The AURIS-Glockenspiel tone bars are made of a special brass alloy that creates the amazing, golden sound. The bars are protected with a thin wax layer that allows you to polish them as they get darker.
