*****

‘DARK WATERS’ is a crystal-clear-like sound, kalimba with a slight hint of roundness on the attack of the notes. The tone is fresh and sparkly, slightly melancholic, with excellent sound projection and great depth. Unlike some kalimbas, which have a variation in tone between the bass and treble registers, DARK WATERS has a consistent tone across a single row of keys.
The note duration is medium to long.
Its soundboard is crafted from red oak.

Each “DARK WATERS” kalimba is unique in appearance.
They are inlaid with pieces of abalone, which are embedded in a deep black resin, creating a colourful game of hide-and-seek that shimmers depending on the angle of the light.
A shimmering, solitary spirit hidden in the shadows – delve into dark waters to discover the light.

Which tuning should you choose?
All our instruments are tuned to 440 Hz , major scale. Whichever tuning you choose, you’ll be able to play the same pieces, as kalimba sheet music is written using numbers: the fingerings will remain the same, and the music will sound slightly lower or slightly higher depending on the tuning you choose.
As each piece of wood is unique, with slight variations in density, we select the tuning that sounds best after several tests. We therefore advise against retuning the instrument to a higher pitch. However, it is generally possible to tune it to a lower pitch.
