Description
- Traditonal and commonly used in Nepal
- These Bowls are stunning – hand hammered, brass singing bowls have a wonderfully complex set of overtones and harmonics
- Each comes unboxed with a purpose made wooden striker
- Hand beaten bowls have more complex and overtone rich range of sounds, than machine bowls, but there is more of a knack to playing them!
HOW TO PLAY:
- Rest the singing bowl in the palm of the hand; hold smaller bowls on the fingertips
- Hold the striker in the middle with all fingertips pointing downwards
- Gently tap the striker against the side of the bowl to ‘warm it up’
- With an even pressure, rub the striker clockwise around the outside rim of the bowl
- Use a full arm movement just like stirring a big pan of soup
- Try to keep the striker straight and remember to apply pressure
- Let the sound build up slowly as the singing bowl picks up the vibration
