Music of the Spheres - Mongolian Alto Windchime

The Mongolian scale, a livelier version of the Chinese scale, is reminiscent of church and temple bells. The major pentatonic scale in root position in the key of A. Genghis Khan conquered an empire unmatched in size, yet never heard chimes as lovely as these! The Alto size delivers a delicacy of sound with deeper resonance.

Features:
- Tough synthetic cordage is highly resistant to abrasion, ultra-violet degradation, rot and mildew. Central tube suspension with smoothly polished tube ends prevent cord abrasion typical of other, less labor-intensive suspension techniques.
- Heavy gauge polished stainless steel rings provide sturdy support and enduring beauty.
- Tempered aluminum alloy tubing will never rust.
- Corrosion-protective black powder coated finish preserves chime's appearance and increases durability in hostile environments (acid rain, salt air).
- Tubes are tuned to A440, standard orchestral pitch, using the latest in technology.
- Solid polyethylene clappers provide superior tonal quality and outdoor durability.
- The windcatcher, of the same finish and material as the tubes, is the ideal size, weight, and shape for optimal chime performance in 8 - 10 mph wind velocity.
- The windcatcher hook assembly provides simple but effective method of varying the chime's activity level.
- The clapper slides on the central cord up into the ring creating a convenient "off-on" feature.
- Windcatchers can also be easily removed to subdue chime activity under blustery conditions.
