Everything you need to know about Koshi chimes

The Koshi chime is a handcrafted harmonic instrument designed to offer a musical and sensory experience that resonates within each of us. This vibrational harmony is the result of meticulous craftsmanship and a constant pursuit of accuracy and universality.

Unlike decorative wind chimes, Koshi chimes are tuned according to a precise harmonic architecture: the notes do not simply follow one another, they answer one another. Played by the movement of the hand, the breath or the wind, the sound is not based solely on random motion. Each vibration finds an echo, resonates with the entire instrument and creates a living melody that is never identical, yet always coherent.

Koshi instruments offer a unique quality of listening: vibrant, natural and reassuring. The ear perceives a living, mobile and unpredictable sound. Because the notes are tuned to one another, this element of chance remains clear, balanced and harmonious.

Koshi chimes therefore open up an accessible and instinctive space for listening. This quality is found in many natural sounds: wind in the leaves, river water and the movement of waves. These sounds vary constantly without seeming disorderly. They follow cycles, returns and a rhythm of breath: continuous variation within a coherent framework.

We observe and listen to Nature to inspire our collections. 4 Elements, the original collection, explores the elemental forces of Life through four melodies: Terra, Aqua, Aria and Ignis. Tuned to 432 Hz, each chime has eight silvered steel rods, soldered with silver, and a bamboo resonance tube.

With Earth Symphony, Koshi opens up a broader sonic territory. Inspired by the great presences of Nature, Mountain, Forest, River and Ocean evoke living landscapes. Tuned to 440 Hz, this collection unfolds a deeper, more immersive resonance. Each chime in the collection has a solid European wood resonance chamber, contains no plastic and pursues a pure, lasting sound in harmony with Nature.

Koshi chimes are designed for the simple joy of listening. They also naturally accompany contemplative and introspective practices: meditation, relaxation, yoga, sound therapy and sophrology. Our instruments make hearts beat in harmony on every continent.
