Inviting clients, or parents and kids, into a \"musical conversation\" is a creative way to break the ice. While the sound builds active listening, the resonant block creates a physical connection between players. This non-threatening musical dialogue can bring more creativity and openness into any session.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePlaying Solo\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHold the \u003cem\u003eTwin\u003c\/em\u003e in both hands so that each thumb can reach one set of tines. You can now play all nine tones on both sides of the instrument, creating a full, rich sound with natural overtones — thanks to the identical tuning on both sides. When one tine is plucked, it resonates with its twin on the other side, producing a beautifully layered tone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the advanced kalimba player, the \u003cem\u003eTwin\u003c\/em\u003e also offers the potential of a wider range of scales by simply retuning individual tines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePlaying Duo\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe driving motive for designing the \u003cem\u003eTwin\u003c\/em\u003e was a desire to create an instrument that offers a shared experience of sound — between therapist and patient, couples, family members, and friends.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs the wooden body resonates, it is physically felt by both partners. The identical tuning of the two sets of tines guarantees harmonious tone sequences and sounds. Tones on the two sides can also be tuned to differ slightly while still harmonizing — opening up even more musical possibilities between players.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat Customers Are Saying\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“A tool for bringing hearts and minds together in a fun and relaxed way. I’ve used it in the office to bring our staff into harmony before meetings. Two people, facing each other, each hold a side of the kalimba. One person plays a single note. The other answers with a single note. Expand to two notes each, listening and interacting without playing simultaneously. Then one person plays a simple, continuous rhythmic pattern while the other plays in response — all done without pauses or discussion, just sink into the experience.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e— M.
