Our Kalimba B11 ‘Melody’ is carefully handcrafted from solid American cherry (black cherry). The surfaces are treated with vegetable oils and waxes and polished. The 11 reeds are precisely tuned in the G major scale, allowing a variety of well-known songs to be played. However, the “Melody” is just as suitable for improvisation and intuitive playing.
When arranging the reeds, we alternated long and short reeds for technical and tonal reasons. The six shorter reeds have been bent so that their ends are at a higher level than those of the long reeds so that they can be easily reached by the thumbs. When playing the notes from low to high, the five long reeds are first plucked alternately with both thumbs from the center outwards – the right thumb starts on reed no. 6 – then the six short reeds, also from the center outwards. The left thumb starts on tongue 5.
Tuning: G major ( g” – a’ – e” – d’ – c” – g – d” – g’ – f#” – b’ – a” )
