Must be heard! A special acoustic effect makes this raga scale extra soothing. Our Magical Mystery Chimes feature a musical phenomenon known as octave doubling. Here's how it works - you remember the Do-Re-Me-Fa-So-La-Ti-Do scale from The Sound of Music? The "Do" notes at the start and end of this scale are the same note, an octave apart. Notes separated by an octave are considered harmonically equivalent and "ring" together in a way that adds a pleasing sound to the music. Our Magical Mystery Chimes take this theory to the extreme - each note of the chime is matched with its "octave double." This unique tuning heightens the harmonics never used in wind chimes, creating a song that must be heard and believed. When doubled, the notes of a North Indian raga scale sound as grand as the Taj Mahal. This chime's sound is mysterious and peaceful, as lovely as the story behind the famous palace. Inspired by love, an emperor built the Taj Mahal in memory of his beloved wife during the 17th century. Enjoy the complex layering of this calming chime in your home or garden.
