Nine metal tines are precision tuned to 5 of the 7 notes of the A minor Scale (the white key of the piano). The notes are A, B, C, E and F, which give a nice flavour to the A minor scale, and is also the Hirajoshi Japanese scale, resulting in intuitive play - and it's certainly easy for a beginner to make it sound musical. Four of the tines are shorter and placed above five longer ones, arranged in octave resulting in ease of play.
The goatskin resonator membrane adds warmth, volume and longevity to the sound. The tensioning device allows for versatility. A true professional's instrument
Hand-made from high quality materials in Germany by HOKEMA Kalimbas. Arrives attractively boxed.
What is a Sansula?
A Sansula is an innovative new instrument design from German Company HOKEMA, based on a Kalimba (which itself is a modern version of an Africa Mbira). Metal Tines are played with the thumbs and the sound resonates through the whole body of the instrument, resulting in a fuller and longer lasting tone than a normal Kalimba. A Kalimba is also known as a "Thumb Piano".
Kalimba and Sansulas benefit from using modern, western scales so are more accessible to our western ears than the traditional African versions. Many are tuned to simple scales, making them easy to get started with and to make beautiful, relaxing music straight away. They can be used for meditation, yoga and even performance.
The name "Sansula" is derived from "Sansa", which is another name for a type of "Mbira".
A small family business since 1985, Hokema produce beautiful little instruments from high quality materials. Hand made with passion in Germany.
What Our Customers Have to Say About Our Service...
"I have received the wind chime this morning and I couldn't be more pleased. I have bought this as a Christmas present for my sister to replace a very similar one I had given her as a gift a few years ago. When she was decorating her kitchen at the start of the summer, she dropped the wind chime into the sink whilst taking it down to paint her windows and it shattered. She was very upset as she was very fond of it. Unfortunately the shop that I purchased that wind chime from is no longer there, so I was absolutely delighted when I discovered your website. I would also like to thank you for the prompt delivery. I will have no hesitation in recommending Wind chimes Corner. Regards,"
"Hello Ben, I am glad to inform you I received your windchimes last Friday. They hang in our veranda and we are really pleased with their beautiful sound. Thank you very much! Kind regards "
"Thank you! Received today and they look and sound lovely and will give me lots of pleasure every day. "
