Woodstock Windsinger Chimes are musically-tuned using an ancient system
known as "just intonation." This means the frequencies at which the
different tubes vibrate are related to one another by simple
whole-number ratios. Tones that are related in this way produce the
purest, most beautiful musical intervals. This chime is tuned to an
ancient Chinese pentatonic scale.
The Chimes of Apollo are
named for the Greek god of prophecy, music and healing. According to
mythology, Apollo's chariot carried the sun across the sky each day
bringing light and warmth to the earth below.
The 6 tubes, made
from super-thick aluminium with a black powder coating are specially suspended which allows the
chimes to resonate much longer than other wind chimes.
This chime carries a lifetime tuning guarantee.
