9 Note Swinging Bar Chime - Made In Moldova

Clear tones. Moving resonance.

This 9-note swinging bar chime offers a balanced, melodic voice that can be played with precision or set into motion for a more immersive field of sound.

Handmade by a shamanic artisan in Moldova, the chime is tuned to standard perfect pitch and crafted with care for both sound and feel.

A Clear and Versatile Voice

Notes: C – D – E – F – G – A – B – C – D

Each note is distinct, with a gentle sustain that allows tones to be heard individually or in combination.

Played note by note, the chime offers a clear and melodic expression. When multiple bars are struck together, the sound becomes more layered—soft, harmonic, and flowing.

Form and Movement

The top handle allows for easy holding and positioning.

You can work with the chime in a fixed position for clarity and control, or set it into motion. As the bars swing, the tones begin to overlap and interact—creating a shifting field of sound that feels more active and immersive.

Use in Practice

This is an instrument that can be approached in different ways.

You may play individual tones with intention, or allow several notes to arise together. With movement, the experience changes—the sound becomes less fixed, more fluid, and more enveloping.

It can be used for melodic playing, gentle background resonance, or to introduce motion and variation into a sound field.
