Kalimba Fundamentals (Treble)
Hugh Tracey African-Tuned Karimba instrument similar to a Kalimba but with African tuning. Available with a built in pickup if you are wanting to create a louder sound.
Hugh Tracey, originally a farmer from Devon, dedicated his life to promoting African music and developed and adapted his version of a mriba, also known as a kalimba - meaning "little music", traditionally an instrument from Zimbabwe.
The Treble kalimba has many musical possibilities, and has a very clear, high voice that can cut through other instruments. Get this one if you have smaller hands or superior manual dexterity.
The Treble Kalimba comes in the key of G, starting on the 3rd (B) and going up 2.5 octaves to a D. This model has been extensively copied by other manufacturers outside of Africa. The Hugh Tracey Treble Kalimba is a superior musical instrument with level tines that rarely give you problems.

- A special place in our product line is reserved for the tongue drum, the wooden box with a pattern of slots cut into the top producing a range of different tones. Based on an ancient Aztec prototype, these were our first manufactured product back in 1980 (hence our name). We now source these from the German workshops of Boehme and Schlagwerk. There are versions which are tuned to a definite scale and others which produce a more random range of tones. Beware of imitations - cheap versions of these may look the part but can tend to warp and jam or just sound dead
