The Sound Sculpture can be played by any person who feels called for the instrument. No previous musical education, skill or knowledge is needed. It is an intuitive instrument.
The Sound Sculpture invites singers to accompany and explore their voices, while allowing musicians to expand their creative process. Novices to music, as well as children, may play it to help develop sensitivity and creativity, and Healers may use it to open doors to a new and exciting venue of Sound Healing. Any person, regardless of their musical development, can empower themselves to produce music. The sounds emanated by the Sound Sculpture create an unique space of quietness, serenity, introspection, and crystalline vibrations, inviting the presence of deep relaxation and meditation to the environment.
-
The Sound Sculpture can be played with fingers or with mallets. Either way, the player can explore different ways of producing harmonies and consonant scales, catered to the player’s intuition and their way of playing.
It can be positioned by placing the instrument warped within the player’s thighs and held by the feet; by hanging the instrument on a wall (special hanging wires are built into the instrument’s frame,) or by loose hanging e.g. from a tree branch. It can also be positioned with our custom made Sound Sculpture Stand.

Sound Sculpture sounds create a very unique space of stillness and crystalline energies. It invites the presence of deep relaxation and meditation for both the player and the audience. This instrument is a natural for meditative gatherings and retreats as it expands and uplifts consciousness with its power of high-frequency harmonious sounds.
The Sound Sculpture works well in accompanying other instruments as well as for solo-playing, especially for musicians and novices who appreciate intuitive and indigenous music.
It can be a natural tool for healers who work with, or wish to include Sound Healing in their work.
