Hokema Kalimba B9 Electric (For Sound Bath)
Clear tone. Simple melody.
Hokema kalimbas are finely crafted in Germany from solid cherrywood, offering a warm, resonant body and a clear, bell-like tone.
Each instrument reflects a high level of craftsmanship—balanced in the hands, responsive to touch, and consistent in sound.
A Clear and Melodic Voice
Kalimbas—often called finger pianos—produce bright, chime-like tones when the metal tines are gently plucked.
The sound is clean and sustained, with a light, musical quality that can resemble a softly played wind chime—yet with the added ability to shape melody and rhythm directly with your fingers.
Scale: A minor scale.
Each tuning is arranged so the notes naturally harmonize, making it easy to create flowing and coherent sound.
A Practice-Centered Approach
This is an intuitive and accessible instrument.
You can begin by playing just a few tines, allowing simple patterns or melodies to emerge. Even minimal playing creates a sense of harmony.
In sound work, the kalimba pairs naturally with the voice—matching tone, following pitch, or gently layering sound. Its clarity makes it easy to connect with, both as a player and listener.
Tine Variations
Each model offers a different number of tines.
Fewer tines create a more minimal and spacious experience, while more tines expand melodic range and flexibility. All versions maintain a balanced and harmonious tone.
