Made in France","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Koshi Earth Symphony Set of 4 contains all four chimes of the new Koshi collection:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mountain in walnut, Forest in oak, River in cherry and Ocean in maple, each with 12 hand-tuned steel rods at 440 Hz, handmade in France. Handcrafted and hand-tuned in the Koshi workshop at the foot of the French Pyrenees.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEarth Symphony is a departure from the original Koshi 4 Elements line. Each chime carries twelve hand-tuned steel rods instead of eight, four of them doubled at the same frequency as sympathetic resonators, and the resonance chamber is turned from fine wood rather than bamboo. The tuning reference is 440 Hz. The result is a broader, deeper and noticeably longer resonance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe four melodies were designed to be played alone or in dialogue with one another. They share the same harmonic coherence, so any combination stays in harmony, and together they compose a broad, deep and living soundscape that no single chime can produce on its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eListen to all four melodies\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0676\/2728\/6581\/files\/koshi-earth-symphony-mountain-pictogram.png?v=1789468970\" alt=\"Koshi Mountain pictogram\" width=\"60\" height=\"60\" style=\"width:60px;height:auto;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMOUNTAIN\u003c\/strong\u003e - Walnut, E major.
