Collection Color: Terra (C-Major)

The body of the B9 and the B7 is the same size, but the tines for the B7 are wider than the tines on the B9. Because of the wider tines, the B7 is easier to play.

The deep tones of the pentatonically tuned instrument emit vibrations that are felt particularly strongly in the hands. This is one reason the B7 is especially favored by music therapists. Always in harmony, it’s also an easy instrument for beginners to play.

The tuning of the Kalimba B7 is pentatonic C and will work with our Soundscape Terra C-major collection

Tuning of tines is: E, G, D, E, C, A, A

You can amplify the sound by placing the Kalimba on a flat surface, like a table or on top of a drum.

Solid resonant body of American cherry wood.
Measurements: 4.8 x 3.6 x 1.4 inch

Sweet Sound

My first experience with a Hokema Kalimba was at the gift shop of the Music Instrument Museum in Phoenix, AZ. I was blown away by the big, beautiful sound of those instruments, but I wasn’t ready to plunk down $200 for it.

Fast forward, I read about the Twin Kalimba and was encouraged by a review that suggested it was great for events. This particular person, evidently a musician like me, gave out ten of these during his shows and was thrilled by how the audience members enjoyed the experience.

So, given these two experiences, I had high hopes for the twin.

It is a sweet sounding instrument, but the sound is very quiet. The wood is solid so it doesn’t resonate like its higher priced solo cousins (that feature a resonator) or traditional kalimbas that have found holes.

So, I’m a little underwhelmed by the sound, but it’s still a great concept. Perhaps it will be fine and dandy when I share it with audiences. Let’s see!

Hokema B9 Kalimba Aria

I was pleased with customer service & by the work ethic that this company has. This is my first kalimba that I have ever owned. It is easy to make pretty little melodies & pairs well with the chime of the same key, but admittedly the kalimba sounds louder & sweeter when held & played so it works better when these instruments are played by 2 people. Overall I was pleased with my purchase.

Fun and super easy to play

I love how easy it is to just pick up and play. My anxiety lessened until I found myself in a meditative space. It happens every time I pick it up. Ended up purchasing a few more for friends. We play together and none of us has had lessons!
