Ensemble Groupings of Wind ChimesWind chimes are a wonderful and practical way to bring the joy of music
to your home or garden. With today's modern manufacturing
techniques and computer aided design, wind chimes have more accurate
tunings, greater clarity of tone and longer lasting resonance than at
any other time in their history. This precision makes it
possible to create wind
chimes
that have been tuned to specific scales, melodies and even
songs. The modern wind chime has moved beyond its role as a
decorative garden piece and has become a functional, musical accent to
a home or garden.
As a musical instrument a wind chime need not play solo.
Because of the specificity of tunings available, wind
chimes can be grouped so that
their different tunings and tones compliment and enhance one
another. Beautiful music can be created, by grouping soprano,
tenor, and bass toned wind chimes together in ensemble. The
music created by an ensemble of wind chimes is naturally more robust
and more layered than that of a single chime. An ensemble of
wind chimes lends your living space a sublime sense of depth and
harmony. Transcendent chords are produced as the different
pitch ranges come together and unique melodies are created every time
the wind blows.
Don't limit a garden space to one tone to tuning; use an ensemble of
wind chimes to create an environment rich in sound and harmony.
