The Kalimba, also known as a “thumb piano”, is a soft, beautiful sounding, melodic instrument that emits ethereal tones when the keys are plucked. This Kalimba has 10 keys (tines) in the Key of C major. This instrument is easy to play and does not require any musical background. It’s great for sound healing therapy, meditation and yoga. Also, teachers can use them to corral a classroom. Of course, musicians can have their fun with them too and they are often used in various musical situations such as soundtracks.
