Stringed High Harmonics Instruments...
...are played using a bow. The string is held with a finger, so that the natural harmonic scale of the string can resonate. This also explains the name "Pythagorean".
These archaic scales have a extraordinary effect on the listener, which cannot be compared with music that is generated from the 'organised' soundspace..
High Harmonics Instruments are available in different designs.
The photo above shows a functionalistic version with a size of ca. 2.8 m (string length ca. 2 m).
There are one or two additional layers of resonance strings below the melody strings, resulting in a fusion of High Harmonics Instrument, Monochord and Tamboura.
Percussion Instruments
I have designed and built diverse percussion instruments such as drums, mallet instruments, kalimbas, chimes etc.
These instruments were also designed as complete sets for kindergardens, musicians, as well as therapeutical institutions.
