Originally, the kalimba comes from the traditional African music of the sub-Saharan continent and is a form of lamellophone. It was especially widespread among the Chewa and Tumbuka in Malawi. Several lamellas are attached to a sound box and are plucked with the fingers. Its sound is warm, soft and gentle and it has a relaxing effect on its listeners. It can be played alone, but also blends harmoniously with the playing of other instruments.
The Hokemak Kalimba not only sounds light as a feather, but is also easy to learn and can be played by anyone without prior knowledge. The handy musical instrument has tuned scales from which you can create wonderful melodies.
