Description

THALYS focuses on depth. Its central note carries far and envelops the harmonics, for a contemplative playing experience right from the beginner level.

The character of THALYS

Each Lunveil model is selected for a precise sound quality. For THALYS, it is a full bass that immediately establishes an atmosphere.

Specifications

  • Scale: D minor (D Kurd)
  • Number of notes: 9, 10 or 12 depending on the variant
  • Tuning: 440 Hz or 432 Hz of your choice
  • Material: stainless steel
  • Diameter: 53 cm
  • Height: 24 cm
  • Tuned and checked by hand

For whom

Beginner level. The number of notes is chosen when ordering: 9 notes to start with simple markers, 12 notes to have a wider melodic range.

Note layout (D Kurd)

The D Kurd scale is the most played in the world, and the one we recommend starting with: its intervals sound right in all combinations.

  • 9 notes: ding D3 — A3, A#3, C4, D4, E4, F4, G4, A4
  • 10 notes: the 9 notes above + C5
  • 12 notes: the 10 notes above + D5 and E5

The layout is identical in 440 Hz and 432 Hz: only the tuning pitch changes.

440 Hz or 432 Hz?

440 Hz is the international reference tuning: choose it to play with other instruments. 432 Hz is a slightly lower tuning, sought after in meditative practice for its sound, which is perceived as softer.

Maintenance

Wipe the surface with a dry cloth after each session. Store the instrument in its bag, away from humidity and temperature fluctuations.
