Listen to the soothing sound “illusion” of this Healing Chime as the precisely tuned tubes work together to create rich harmony and wonderful magic. This illusion seems to create more tones than the number of its tubes (such as low bass notes created in your ear)! We use a beautiful ancient tuning not heard on any modern instrument and the result is as amazing as it is unique. This is called the Natural Harmonic Overtone Series. It’s magic to your ears and comfort to your mind.Over 30 years ago, Grammy award-winning musician and instrument designer Garry Kvistad created the first Woodstock Chime from an aluminum lawn chair he found in a landfill. Fascinated by the Scale of Olympos, a 7th century pentatonic scale that can’t be played on a modern piano, Garry cut and tuned the lawn chair tubes to the exact frequency of the ancient scale. The resulting Chimes of Olympos was the first Woodstock Chime and is still one of our best selling, musically-tuned windchimes. Garry and his wife Diane founded Woodstock Chimes in 1979 and still develop the chimes today. It remains a family-owned business in New York’s Hudson Valley.

Especially popular in Brazilian and Cajun music, the triangle is used in folk music from around the world as well as in classical pieces. This triangle’s simple, elegant design is reminiscent of a boat with its sails proudly waving. A skysail is traditionally the uppermost sail that readily catches the wind. Similarly, Woodstock’s Skysail Triangle wind catcher is designed to catch even the slightest breeze. Whether you hang this instrument indoors or out, its happy chiming will entice you to adventure. Head to dinner or just sail away to exciting destinations every time you hear its gentle call. Gift boxed. Woodstock Chimes are the original, musically-tuned, high-quality wind chimes known worldwide for their superior sound. When listening to a Woodstock Chime, you hear a fine musical instrument played by the wind, perfectly hand-tuned using the ancient system of “just intonation” based on natural harmonics. This means the frequencies at which the different chime tubes vibrate are related to one another by simple whole-number ratios. Tones that are related in this way produce the most beautiful musical intervals. The sonic effect is exceptionally pure and soothing. More than 30 years ago, the first Woodstock Chime was created by founder and owner Garry Kvistad from an aluminum lawn chair he found in a landfill. As a professional musician and instrument designer, he was fascinated by the Scales of Olympos, a 7th century pentatonic scale that can’t be played on a modern piano. Garry had the idea to cut and tune the lawn chair chime tubes to the exact frequency of the ancient scale. The resulting Chimes of Olympos was the first Woodstock Chime and is still one of our bestselling wind chimes. Garry and his wife Diane founded Woodstock Percussion, Inc. in 1979 and it remains a family-owned business in New York’s Hudson Valley.
